Four main aspects about the use of garnet abrasives
Industrial garnet abrasives are a kind of non-metallic minerals with a wide range of uses. Generally speaking, they can be summarized as seven major uses. However, the consumption in some industries in China is not very large, so here Rizhao Garnet Mining will introduce you to garnet The main four aspects of abrasive use
1. Wear-resistant floor aggregate. Garnet is also called natural emery due to its high hardness. In recent years, with the development of the domestic emery floor industry, garnet abrasives have been used more and more in this industry. This kind of floor is characterized by bright colors, abrasion resistance, acid and alkali resistance, easy cleaning and maintenance, especially suitable for parking lots, airports, factory production workshops, docks and other places that need to be clean and load-bearing. The emery floor aggregate of Rizhao Garnet Mining has the hardness of the hardest al-Al garnet in the same series. It is available in green and cement colors.
2. Water purification materials or sewage filtration materials, this is a new application of garnet abrasives in the environmental protection industry. Its application abroad is relatively early, and it is relatively mature at present, but its application in China has yet to be popularized. It mainly takes advantage of the characteristics of garnet abrasives such as high specific gravity, porosity, high hardness, abrasion resistance, acid and alkali resistance, plus its naturally free of harmful substances, abundant content in nature, and reasonable price. There is a tendency to gradually replace quartz sand and magnetite filter media.
3. Water cutting grade garnet abrasive, which is currently one of the two most widely used fields in China. It is mainly used with advanced cold cutting equipment such as water jets to shape and cut various materials. The quality of it has a great influence on the cutting effect and the yield, especially in the waterjet mosaic of fragile products such as tiles and art glass. The key to purchasing high-quality water-cutting grade garnet abrasives is that they are clean and free of dust and large particles.
4. Sandblasting and polishing abrasive materials, this is the field with the widest application potential of garnet abrasives, because it uses industries that are closely related to national production, such as shipbuilding, automobiles, pipelines, drilling platforms and other basic fields. The current sandblasting abrasives contain harmful substances, cannot completely remove impurities, and are expensive. The former is like copper slag and quartz sand, and the latter is brown corundum and white corundum. On the one hand, garnet abrasives do not contain harmful substances, and rigorously produced like Rizhao garnet abrasives, have excellent sandblasting effects, which can not only achieve the sandblasting effects of other abrasives, but even SA2.5 and SA3. The highest blasting grade. The most important thing is that it is a natural abrasive, and the price is much cheaper than brown corundum. In addition to the sandblasting industry, there are many applications of garnet abrasives in the polishing and grinding industry, but the finer garnet powder is used. It is mainly used in some high-precision industries, such as the grinding and polishing of mobile phone screens and gold and jade. Of course, there are many applications for garnet abrasives, such as fillers for sandpaper and abrasives. Rizhao Garnet Mining believes that with the further development of the industry, garnet abrasives will definitely have better applications in more fields.
