Yttrium Oxide Purity Grades

Yttrium Oxide is commonly specified by purity, described in percentage or by the shorthand N notation, which counts the number of nines. The right grade depends on your application and its impurity sensitivity.

Purity N Grade General Position Typical Use
99.9% 3N General industrial grade with a wider impurity margin Cost sensitive or higher volume ceramic and industrial use
99.99% 4N Tighter grade where chemical consistency matters Demanding but not ultra critical applications
99.999% 5N High purity grade for impurity sensitive work Optical, laser, electronic and similar uses

A higher grade is not automatically better for a given process. Confirm the required grade and specification against your application before ordering.
