In modern industrial production, as an important surface treatment technology, brown corundum sandblasting is widely used in various fields. Different from traditional sandblasting materials, brown corundum shows excellent performance in surface cleaning, decontamination, rust removal and strengthening due to its unique physical and chemical properties, such as high hardness, high wear resistance and good chemical stability. When using brown corundum for sandblasting, choosing the appropriate particle size is particularly critical. In this paper, the commonly used particle size and specific application of brown corundum sandblasting will be discussed.
What are the commonly used particle size numbers of brown aluminum oxide for sandblasting?
The particle size of brown corundum sandblasting refers to the thickness of the sand, which is usually divided according to the average particle size of the sand. The common brown corundum sandblasting size is F8, F16, F24, F36, F46, F60, F80, F120 and so on. The choice of these particle sizes depends on the specific blasting needs and objectives. Coarser particle sizes such as F8 and F16 are suitable for heavy cleaning and removal of thick coatings, while finer particle sizes such as F120 are more suitable for fine grinding and surface polishing.
How to choose the right brown alumium oxide sandblasting size?
The choice of the appropriate brown corundum sandblasting grain number needs to be determined according to the specific sandblasting needs and objectives. If you need to remove heavy oil, rust and old coatings from the surface, you can choose a coarser particle size such as F8 or F16. If minor cleaning and surface preparation is required, or if surface roughness is required, finer particle sizes such as F60 or F120 can be selected.
What are the different application scenarios of brown aluminum oxide sandblasting with different particle sizes?
Brown corundum sandblasting with different particle size has different application scenarios. The coarser particle size is suitable for heavy cleaning that is not too demanding on the surface, such as rust removal and decontamination of large components such as hulls and Bridges. The finer particle size is suitable for fine treatment with higher requirements for surface roughness, such as sandblasting of automotive and electronic equipment enclosures.
Does the choice of brown aluminum oxide sandblasting size affect the sandblasting effect?
Yes, the choice of brown corundum sandblasting size will directly affect the sandblasting effect. Too coarse particle size may lead to too large surface roughness and affect the binding force between coating and substrate. Particle size rules may not be effective in removing surface dirt and coating. Therefore, choosing the right particle size is the key to achieve the ideal sandblasting effect.
Through the discussion in this paper, we understand the commonly used particle size of brown aluminum oxide for sandblasting and its selection in different application scenarios. The correct selection and use of brown corundum sandblasting size is very important to achieve the ideal surface treatment effect. With the continuous development of industrial technology, brown corundum sandblasting, as an efficient and environmentally friendly surface treatment technology, will be widely used in more fields.
