What is garnet sand powder?

Here, garnet sand powder refers to garnet and garnet powder.

Garnet sand is made from natural garnet minerals.,it is divided into different garnets through crushing, washing, drying and screening.

The abrasive has moderate hardness, high specific gravity, stable chemical properties and good self-sharpening.

Garnet and garnet powder have the following characteristics and uses:

Basic characteristics

High hardness: Mohs hardness reaches 7.5-8, which is slightly lower than the wear resistance of artificial abrasives (corundum, silicon carbide).

Garnet sand characteristics and sizes: reddish brown particles, the particle size can be controlled by grading and screening to meet different precision requirements.

10-20 mesh, 20-40 mesh, 30-60 mesh, 80 mesh, 100 mesh, 120 mesh, etc.

Garnet powder characteristics and particle size: gray-brown powder, through grinding, airflow classification to control particle size, to meet different precision requirements.

Chemical stability: high temperature resistance and stable chemical properties, not easy to react during processing.

Application areas

Fine grinding: used as abrasive powder for polishing metals, ceramics, glass and other materials to improve surface finish.

‌Sandblasting‌: Use ultrafine particles to remove rust by sandblasting, remove surface impurities and form a rough surface to enhance coating adhesion‌.

Waterjet cutting: Used for waterjet cutting of metal, stone, and glass products ‌Industrial catalysis‌: Used as a catalyst carrier in the chemical industry to enhance the reactivity of materials such as silica gel‌.

Environmental advantages‌ ‌

Low dust pollution‌: Compared with traditional abrasives, garnet sand powder produces less dust during processing and meets environmental protection requirements‌. ‌

Recyclability‌: Due to its natural mineral properties, it can be recycled and reused to reduce resource waste‌.

​Low cost: Garnet has low cost and can save expenses. ​

Garnet sand and garnet micropowder have become core materials for precision manufacturing and surface treatment due to their high hardness, controllable particle size and environmental protection characteristics‌ ​
