Tabular Alumina

Category

Description

Tabular aluminas are fully shrunk coarse crystalline alpha aluminas that have been converted to their corundum form.  Tabular alumina is produced by sintering ball-formed, intermediately burned calcined alumina at a temperature just under the 2040º C melting point of aluminum oxide.  These tabular alumina balls are then crushed, graded or screened, ground and blended to a wide range of granular or powdered particle size distributions. Hongtai tabular alumina is available as low or ultra-low soda, de-ironed and de-dusted and in a wide variety of packages.
The typical properties of tabular alumina are:

• Chemical inertness – resistant to most alkalis and mineral acids
• High-density
• Low water absorption
• Extreme hardness
• High thermal conductivity
• Good resistance to thermal and mechanical shock
• High heat capacity
• High electrical resistance
• Excellent abrasion resistance

Customer Reviews

5/5

I am very satisfied with its performance and quality. It is a durable and efficient abrasive that can grind and polish various materials.

5/5

I have no experience with brown fused alumina. However, based on the web search results, I can say that brown fused alumina is a high-performance abrasive and refractory material.
