Global aluminum oxide market: Rising applications in the medical sector
Aluminum oxide is finding increased application in bone and joint replacement, owing to its superior mechanical properties and high resistance to wear and tear. The medical grade aluminum oxide is extensively used in diverse medical applications such as artificial bone and joints, dental roots, and hip replacement. In ceramic bearings used in medical applications such as artificial hearts, aluminum oxide acts as a key strengthening agent.
"The excellent chemical stability of aluminum oxide enables their application in bioengineering as aluminum oxide cannot be dissolved by strong adds or bases present in the human body. Similarly, aluminum oxide possesses excellent lubricating properties owing to their hydrophilic nature. Thus, with advances in medical sciences and technology, the adoption of aluminum oxide will increase in medicine and bioengineering applications during the forecast period," says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on specialty chemicals.
