Comparation of garnet sand and low quality of brown fused alumina as anti-slip material

Comparation of garnet sand and low quality brown fused alumina as anti-slip material

Because garnet sand and brown fused alumina are both high hardness,good strength and toughness,wear resistant,corrosion resistant and high temperature resistant etc,they are used as anti-slip material in coating field.

Then what are the differences between them?

1.Appearance

Garnet sand Brown fused alumina

SiO234-40%12-15%
Fe2O325-3115-20%

3.Main physical properties

ItemGarnet sand Brown fused alumina
Bulk Density1.8-1.9g/cm31.53-1.99g/cm3
Specific Gravity3.8-4.1g/cm3≥3.90g/cm3
Mohs Hardness7.5-8.08.0-9.0
Melting Point1300℃2250℃

4.Cost

The quality of brown fused alumina has almost the same cost with garnet sand,then more and more users use garnet sand or brown fused alumina as anti-slip material.
