Product Overview

SCI-20 Premium Zirconium Replacement

SCI-20 is a high-performance zirconium replacement material developed for ceramic manufacturers seeking an ideal balance of whiteness, opacity, strength, and production efficiency. Engineered with a carefully optimized composition, SCI-20 enhances fired appearance, improves surface finish, and delivers consistent performance across a wide range of ceramic applications. It provides a cost-effective alternative to conventional zircon while maintaining excellent quality standards.

Why SCI-20

Key Performance Benefits

Engineered for maximum cost efficiency, superior firing brightness, and consistent manufacturing performance.

Balanced Zirconium (19.97%)

Delivers reliable optical opacity and high whiteness index across diverse body mixes.

High Alumina Content

54.43% Al₂O₃ boosts mechanical strength, MOR, and thermal shock resistance during firing.

Low Iron Content

Ultra-low Fe₂O₃ (0.20%) prevents yellowish discoloration, maintaining pure white aesthetics.

Thermal & Chemical Stability

Maintains dimensional integrity and chemical stability across diverse kiln firing cycles.

Improved Surface Finish

Produces smooth, pinhole-free surface textures and enhances overall visual appeal.

Cost-Effective Alternative

Acts as a direct zirconium replacement, substantially lowering batch raw material costs.

Batch-to-Batch Quality

Strict quality control ensures uniform composition and reliable firing results in every batch.

Production Efficiency

Integrates seamlessly into existing slip-house, ball mill, and spray-drying operations.
