With the continuous advancement of technology,Intelligent wearable productsIt has become an indispensable part of modern life. Whether it isSmart watches (bracelets), health trackers (smart rings, etc.)StillAugmented Reality GlassesThese devices not only require powerful functionality, but also excellent durability and aesthetics. Among numerous materials,sapphireDue to its unique physical properties and elegant appearance, it has become one of the widely used materials in smart wearable products.

What are the characteristics of sapphire material?

Sapphire is a crystal composed of aluminum oxide (Al2O3),Has extremely high hardness, second only to diamonds. ItsMohs hardness reaches 9It has excellent scratch resistance and can effectively protect the display screen and casing of the device. In addition, sapphire has extremely high transparency, which ensures good optical performance, allowing users to clearly view information when using smart wearable devices.

Sapphire also has excellent propertiesHigh temperature resistanceandChemical corrosion resistance performanceCapable of maintaining stable performance in various extreme environments. These characteristics make the application of sapphire in smart wearable products particularly important.
