Zirconia Polishing Slurry

Product Code 9839

Polishing Slurries Saint-Gobain's Zirconia Polishing Slurry is intended for the polishing of a variety of optical materials.  The slurry is comprised of zirconium oxide particles (monoclinic and stablilized) suspended in an organic suspension system.  This suspension system is formulated to minimize performance losses that would typically occur due to interference of the chemical polishing action.  The slurry is resistant to shear, allowing a recycling mode to be employed, lengthening the life of your slurry and reducing your operational and consumables cost.

 

The slurry is engineered to easily mix in an aqueous solution such that once diluted, it will exhibit soft settling properties that eliminate the need for costly suspension systems.  Zirconia Polishing Slurry is 99% pure and manufactured in our ISO-9002 certified facilities.

 

Recommended applications are any optics polishing operations which utilize pads on either single or double-sided polishing equipment.  Zirconia Polishing Slurry is comptatible with most commercially available pad types.
