Alumina Tape

Our alumina tape is produced via a roll compaction method.  It is rolled in green (un-fired) thicknesses of 0.024” (0.61mm) to 0.058” (1.47mm) and at a single width of 5.875” (150mm).  The length of a roll varies with the thickness but is generally between 75 and 100 feet. We sell the tape in its green (un-fired) form for various proprietary applications.  It is not intended for final use in its current form, as it contains the binder system used during rolling.  It requires either firing to 2,900°F for complete vitrification to a hard-fired substrate, or to be encapsulated within a sheath or other containment with binders removed through an annealing process.  During annealing, binders will burn off at a temperature of approximately 800°F and the tape will at that point revert back to a compacted powder.

Roll Compaction

What is Alumina Tape?

Alumina tape is a flexible ceramic material produced from high-purity alumina powder combined with organic binders and formed into thin sheets or rolls. In its green (un-fired) state, the material can be cut, punched, or formed into custom shapes before being fired into dense ceramic substrates with excellent electrical and thermal properties. Alumina tapes are commonly used in electronic, sensor, and high-temperature applications.

Applications for Alumina Tape

96% alumina tape is commonly used in:

  • Electronic substrates
  • Circuit boards
  • Sensor applications
  • Custom insulating components
  • Thick-film circuits
  • High-temperature electrical insulation
  • Prototype ceramic parts
  • Specialty OEM applications

96% alumina is widely used because of its excellent electrical insulation, mechanical strength, and wear resistance.
