What is aluminum oxide?

Aluminium oxide is a chemical compound of aluminium and oxygen with the chemical formula Al2O3. It is also commonly referred to as alumina in the mining, ceramic and materials science communities.

Annual world production of alumina is approximately 65 million tonnes, over 90% of which is used in the manufacture of aluminium metal. Major uses for aluminium hydroxide include the manufacture of water treatment chemicals such as aluminium sulphate, Poly Aluminium Chloride and sodium aluminate. Large tonnnages are also used in the manufacture of zeolites, coating titania pigments and as a fire retardants/smoke suppressant. The major uses of speciality aluminium oxides are in refractories, ceramics, polishing and abrasive applications. Minor uses include use in toothpaste formulations, and as a medium for chromatography. In this latter application alumina is available in the so-called Brockmann types neutral, basic (pH 9.5) and acidic (pH 4.5 when in water). Aluminium oxide is also used in preparation of coating suspensions in compact fluorescent lamps.

Al2O3 is also used in fluoride water filters. It is one of the few methods available to filter water soluble fluorides out of water.

Because of aluminium oxide's position on the Mohs scale of mineral hardness, (9), it is very widely used as an abrasive as a significantly less expensive replacement for industrial Diamonds. Many types of sandpaper use aluminium oxide crystals.

Aluminium oxide is used in certain CD/DVD cleaning kits, for example, Memorex's Optifix Pro. Alumina will polish the media surface, leaving it clean and relatively scratch free. More than 90% of pre-finished hardwood floors has aluminum oxide enriched finishes.
