Would that make it a type of sapphire?

My thoughts too, what makes this alloy so amazing? It seems to me that sapphire is harder, and otherwise similar use cases

No mention/comparison to Sapphire in the article that I could see, disappointing.

Maybe it is the sintering process that makes it interesting, could be easier to shape maybe ๐Ÿค”
