The role of garnet powder in material additives
Enhancing the mechanical properties of materials
In the manufacture of abrasive tools, garnet powder can be used as a filler to replace 20%-30% of brown corundum to optimize the wear resistance and structural stability of abrasive tools. At the same time, its high hardness can improve the compressive strength and wear resistance of composite materials.
Improving high temperature resistance and ablation resistance
When added to boron phenolic resin, garnet powder forms a dense ceramic layer through a ceramic reaction, which significantly improves the heat resistance and ablation resistance of the material. For example, the linear ablation rate of a composite material containing 50wt% garnet powder is reduced by 44.05%, and the mass ablation rate is reduced by 43.6%.
Optimizing concrete performance
In the field of building materials, garnet powder as an admixture can improve the durability and density of concrete, reduce cement consumption and improve working performance, while promoting environmental protection and resource recycling.
Surface treatment and functional application
As a sandblasting cleaning additive, its uniform particles can effectively remove surface coatings or oxide layers without damaging the substrate; in electronic devices, it can improve the thermal conductivity of the heat dissipation module.
Chemical industry catalysis and environmental protection uses
In catalyst carriers and wastewater treatment, its inert properties and chemical stability can enhance reaction activity or serve as a filter medium.
