Supplying High-Purity Alumina Crucibles to INL, Portugal’s Leading Nanotechnology Laboratory

Table of Contents

At ZYLAB, we are proud to support world-class research with high-performance ceramic materials. One of our recent collaborations involved the supply of high-purity alumina crucibles to the prestigious International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL), located in Braga, Portugal.

About INL – A Global Center for Advanced Research

INL is an international research organization focused on nanoscience and nanotechnology, founded by the governments of Portugal and Spain. With cutting-edge facilities and multidisciplinary teams, INL conducts pioneering work in materials science, energy, quantum technologies, microfabrication, and biomedical applications. For such high-level research, only the most reliable and precise laboratory tools are acceptable.

Why INL Chose ZYLAB Alumina Crucibles

Alumina (Al₂O₃) is a widely used advanced ceramic in high-temperature and chemically demanding environments. INL selected ZYLAB’s crucibles for their:

  • High purity (≥99.5%) alumina material, ensuring low contamination risk
  • Excellent thermal stability, suitable for temperatures up to 1700°C
  • Strong resistance to acid and alkali corrosion
  • Tight dimensional tolerances, ideal for integration in precision instruments
  • Smooth surface finish, improving material recovery and reducing residue

These properties make our alumina crucibles ideal for thermal analysis, sintering, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and crystal growth.

Custom Options for the World-Class Laboratory

We offered:

  • 📐 Custom sizing and wall thickness options
  • 📦 Robust international packaging to protect delicate ceramics during transit

Our ability to provide flexible quantities—from single units to bulk orders—allowed laboratory to test, validate, and scale up their experiments smoothly.

Supporting International Scientific Innovation

Collaborations like this reflect ZYLAB’s mission to empower research labs worldwide with dependable, high-performance thermal components. Our alumina crucibles are now used across Europe, North America, and Asia by leading universities, R&D centers, and industrial innovators.

We are honored to contribute to INL’s groundbreaking work and look forward to supporting their future scientific achievements.
