Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnet nanoparticles
Yttrium aluminum oxide (Y3Al5O12) nanopowder, also called yttrium-alluminium-garnet nanopowder, is a source of highly insoluble and thermally stable yttrium. It appears in the form of a white powder having a nearly spherical structure and it’s the most important solid-state laser host material.
Yttrium aluminum oxide is an electrical insulator, and is used for optic, ceramic and glass applications.
We at Particular Materials synthesize and supply nano and we produce dispersions with excellent stability, monodispersity and fully disaggregated state.

Technical Information
YAG is an important ceramic material due to its high strength and low creep rate at high temperatures and excellent optical properties.
YAG shows thermal stability up to its melting point which is around 1970°C.
It also has other attractive properties, including high chemical stability, high quantum yield, low toxicity, low level of thermal expansion, and tunable light emission wavelength.
