What materials is garnet sand used to blast and remove rust?
Garnet sand blasting and rust removal is suitable for the following materials:
Metal materials
Steel structures: Garnet sand can efficiently remove rust layers and oxide scales, and is suitable for surface treatment of large steel structures.
Ordinary metals: Including iron, steel, etc., can remove impurities such as rust and oil stains, and enhance coating adhesion.
Precision metal parts: Such as metal parts of aircraft, automobiles, ships, etc., used for polishing, decontamination and increasing surface roughness.
Non-metallic materials
Glass: It can remove surface stains or microcracks, improve cleanliness and subsequent processing performance.
Ceramics: Used for surface impurity cleaning and polishing.
Stone: Suitable for stone surface decontamination and roughness adjustment.
Precautions:
The particle size of garnet sand needs to be selected according to the surface requirements of the material. The larger the mesh size, the finer the particles, which is suitable for fine processing. For materials such as plastics, sandblasting should be done with caution to avoid surface damage due to hardness differences (Note: the search results do not clearly mention the specific application of plastic materials).
The above applications are all based on the high hardness, corrosion resistance and environmental protection characteristics of garnet sand to ensure the treatment effect and safety
