Surface Technologies manufactures a wide range of aluminum, cerium and zirconium oxides. These products are used to surface finish ceramic, glass, metal and plastic substrates. The CMP products find application in planarizing various levels of semiconductor chips at the STI (Shallow Trench Isolation) and ILD (Inner Layer Dielectric) levels.
The metal oxides produced are supplied as powders and preformulated compositions to meet specific customer requirements. Compositions can be prepared in either dry, aqueous or non-aqueous vehicle systems. Our customers can choose from a series of products with purity levels ranging from 99.99% to commercial grade materials. These materials can be specifically tailored to meet particle size, density and surface area specifications.
Our newest products are precision grinding fluids recently purchased from Fluid Logic LLC. Click on the product listing below for more information about all of our Surface Finishing products.

OZARK TECHNICAL CERAMICS developed the production of High temperature Hafnium Oxide Insulators to service new advancements in high temperature thermometry. Hafnium Oxide Insulators are also useful as a non-toxic alternative to beryllium oxides in existing applications. OZARK Hafnium Oxide Insulators are routinely used for applications to 2200 C.
Hafnium Oxide, or Hafnia (formula HfO2), is a very refractory high temperature material which may be considered an exotic material in the fabricated form. OZARK developed a fabrication process for Hafnia in the early 80's and has been a steady source of Hafnia extrusions into a limited customer base. The material has gained wide acceptance in the upper temperature with reported uses to 2500 C.
