Advantages

Key features

  1. Dense crystals with high strength

    High-temperature smelting achieves an α-Al₂O₃ conversion rate above 99%, producing large, strong, tough crystals with a dense structure and high bulk density.

  2. Well-formed, angular particles

    Wet ball milling produces well-formed, angular grains for high grinding efficiency and polishing brightness, outperforming softer abrasives such as silica in grinding efficiency.

  3. Narrow particle-size distribution and good batch consistency

    Magnetic separation, acid washing and water-based processing, supported by microscopy and laser particle-size analysis, maintain consistent particle-size distribution between batches.

  4. High surface finish

    Good particle morphology produces a high surface finish, suitable for precision grinding and mirror polishing.

Product details

About this product

Product Overview

Brown fused alumina micropowder is made from quality bauxite, coke or anthracite, and iron filings fused above 2000℃ in an electric arc furnace, followed by crushing, magnetic separation, acid washing and classification. Its main crystalline phase is α-Al₂O₃, with approximately 92%-95% alumina. The brown, angular particles feature large crystals, high strength and toughness, a dense structure and high bulk density. Narrow particle-size distribution and well-formed grains provide efficient grinding and bright polishing of metals, glass and semiconductor materials.

Safe Use Instructions

Wear a dust mask, protective goggles, abrasion-resistant gloves and work clothing to avoid inhaling fine dust.

Provide effective workshop ventilation and dust extraction and keep it running throughout operation.

Handle material gently to minimize airborne dust at its source.

Clean workshop floors regularly and wet-mop them to prevent slipping.

Maintain equipment regularly, inspect it before each shift and remove residual powder after use.

Storage

Store in a dry, ventilated, moisture-protected warehouse to prevent caking.

Stack products neatly by category, control stacking height and keep fire access routes clear.

Micropowders are sensitive to humidity. Protect containers against moisture during export shipping and use desiccants if necessary.

Do not store together with corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis.
