FAQs
What makes black zirconia different from white zirconia?ics?
Black zirconia contains cobalt iron oxide pigment that provides the deep black color while maintaining the same exceptional mechanical properties as white zirconia—perfect for applications where black aesthetics are required.
What finishing options are available for black zirconia?
Black zirconia can be finished as-sintered (matte black), brushed for satin finish, or polished to high gloss. The black color remains consistent through all finishing processes.
What applications is black zirconia best suited for?
Luxury watch components, black consumer electronics, high-end jewelry, architectural details, premium kitchenware, and any application requiring both black aesthetics and ceramic performance.
How does the strength compare to other ceramics?
Black zirconia offers exceptional bending strength (400-1000 MPa) and hardness (19 GPa), making it significantly stronger than most technical ceramics and ideal for functional, high-wear applications.
Does the black color affect the material properties?
No, the black pigment is integrated during manufacturing and does not compromise the exceptional mechanical properties of the zirconia matrix.
What design limitations should I consider?
Similar to white zirconia: maximum printed size determined by furnace, minimum wall: 1mm, minimum feature: 0.6mm. Follow the same design guidelines as white zirconia.
Can I achieve different shades of black?
The material produces a consistent deep black. Different surface finishes (matte, brushed, polished) will affect the appearance but not the base color.
How long does the complete process take?
Printing varies by model. Chemical debinding takes 6h + 2h drying, thermal debinding ≈60h (or 23h accelerated), and sintering ≈29h including ramp times and holding.
What safety precautions are necessary?
tandard ceramic filament handling—use in well-ventilated areas, wear FFP2 masks during printing and handling. The sintered black zirconia is safe for handling.
What’s the shelf life of the filament?
One year when stored in original vacuum-sealed packaging in cool, dry conditions.
