White fused aluminum oxide for Alumina Ceramics
White fused aluminum oxide is a common raw material as abrasive and blasting media. In the meantime, it is also a granulation material for alumina ceramics. Widely used in high-temperature kiln equipment, zirconia ceramic filtration equipment, alumina ceramic crucibles, saggers, lining plates, and other ceramic products.
White fused aluminum oxide has the following advantages as a ceramic material:
1. High hardness: Although the hardness is lower than that of diamond, silicon carbide, and boron carbide. White aluminum oxide is higher than most non-metallic materials and metals. Its Mohs hardness is 9 levels, therefore it has excellent wear resistance.
2. High strength: White fused alumina has high compressive and flexural strength. Thus it can withstand large forces and pressures.
3. High-temperature resistance: White fused aluminum oxide has a high melting point and can be used at temperatures up to 1800 degrees. It can maintain its physical and chemical stability in high-temperature environments.
4. Corrosion resistance: White fused aluminum oxide has good corrosion resistance to most chemicals such as acids and alkalis, and can be used in some corrosive environments.
5. Good thermal conductivity: White fused alumina has a high thermal conductivity, which can effectively conduct heat.
6. Good formability: WFA sand and powder are easy to form and can be made into various shapes and sizes of products through processes such as pressing and injection molding.
These characteristics make white fused alumina widely used in abrasives, grinding materials, refractory materials, electronic ceramics, chemical industries, and other fields. For example, white alumina sand 80 # is a good material for producing ceramic crucibles and sintered lining plates. White fused aluminum oxide powder 600 # is the main raw material for producing alumina ceramic filters.
