Cerium Oxide Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ceria
- Cerium Dioxide
- Ceric Oxide
- cerium(IV) Oxide
Cerium oxide supplier for glass polishing, optical finishing, electronics CMP and catalyst process buyers in Malaysia. Also called ceria, cerium dioxide and ceric oxide, this rare-earth oxide is the fine CeO2 powder specified for chemical-mechanical polishing and selected redox process duties.
Commercial offers centre on free-flowing polishing powder, higher-purity ceria and catalyst or process grades. Selection usually turns on CeO2 content, median particle size and impurity profile rather than a single stock assay, so buyers should state the finish or process target with the enquiry.
Manufacturers use cerium oxide polishing powder on flat glass, windscreens, mirrors, optical glass and ophthalmic lenses. Electronics plants may call for it in CMP slurries, while automotive and process users specify ceria in catalyst systems, glass decolourising and related formulations.
Send the required grade, purity or particle size if known, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Cerium Oxide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glass and optical polishing powder | fine free-flowing powder | — | Chemical-mechanical polishing of flat glass, windscreens, mirrors, optical glass and ophthalmic lenses where a ceria-based abrasive is specified. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| High-purity cerium oxide powder | fine powder selected on CeO2 purity | — | Applications that need a higher ceria content and tighter impurity control than mixed rare-earth polishing compounds, including selected ceramic and specialty process uses. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Catalyst and process grade ceria | powder or process-ready grade as quoted | — | Automotive catalyst formulations, fuel-additive work, glass decolourising and other process duties where cerium oxide is used for its redox behaviour rather than as a polishing abrasive. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about cerium oxide
What is cerium oxide used for?
Buyers mainly specify cerium oxide as a glass and optical polishing powder, and as a component in CMP slurries. Process grades also serve automotive catalysts, glass decolourising, ceramics and selected fuel-additive duties.
Are cerium oxide, ceria and cerium dioxide the same material?
Yes. Cerium oxide, ceria, cerium dioxide and ceric oxide all refer to cerium(IV) oxide, CeO2. The commercial grade still matters, so state purity, particle size and the intended polishing or process use in the enquiry.
Which cerium oxide grade should I request for glass polishing?
Polishing grades are selected on CeO2 content and median particle size to match the glass type, removal rate and surface finish required. Send any current specification, slurry practice or particle-size target so a suitable powder can be matched.
Is cerium oxide the same as aluminium oxide polishing powder?
No. Cerium oxide is a rare-earth oxide used for chemical-mechanical glass polishing, while aluminium oxide is a different abrasive with its own cut and finish behaviour. Keep the two materials on separate specifications.
Can documentation and packing be requested with the quotation?
Yes. List the required product documents and preferred pack format in the enquiry. Available documentation, packing and commercial details are confirmed for the quoted grade.
What details are needed for a cerium oxide price enquiry?
Provide the grade or form, target purity or particle size if known, application, quantity and delivery location. Mention any preferred packing and documentation so the quotation can cover the full requirement.
