What is TiO2 Ceramic C-310?
TiO2 Ceramic C-310 is a rutile-based high-permittivity dielectric ceramic covered by IEC 60672 designation C-310, available as standard, high-purity 99 % and glazed variants. It is specified where high capacitance density must be packaged in a compact insulator body, supplied as pressed, extruded or slip-cast parts with a density of 3.85 g/cm³, elastic modulus around 215 GPa and thermal conductivity of about 3.8 W/m·K. Service is limited to roughly 1000 °C, and machinability rates 5, so fired bodies need diamond work and chip easily at edges. Steatite or alumina is the alternative where mechanical robustness matters more than permittivity. TiO2 Ceramic C-310 has a density of 3.9 g/cm³ (0.141 lb/in³), lighter than 58% of ceramic grades. It melts at 1,843°C (3,349 °F). TiO2 Ceramic C-310 has a tensile strength of 55 MPa (7.98 ksi), weaker than 65% of ceramic grades. The elastic modulus is 220 GPa (31.9 Msi).
What is TiO2 Ceramic C-310 used for?
- high-K capacitors
- temperature-compensating capacitor dielectrics
- microwave components

Working with TiO2 Ceramic C-310
Is TiO2 Ceramic C-310 easy to machine?
Machine in the green or bisque state wherever possible; the fired body needs diamond grinding, lapping or laser/ultrasonic machining and chips easily at edges.
Can TiO2 Ceramic C-310 be welded?
Not weldable — join by active-metal brazing (Ti/Ag-Cu), glass sealing or metallising (Mo-Mn + Ni) followed by soldering; match CTE (~8 µm/m·K) with Kovar-class or Ni-Fe hardware.
Can TiO2 Ceramic C-310 be formed, bent or molded?
Shaped by dry pressing, isostatic pressing, extrusion or slip casting of the milled TiO2 powder, then sintered at ~1300–1400 °C in air; firing shrinkage is typically 14–18 %.
