Brown fused alumina coated P sand P16~P1500
The significant chemical composition of brown fused alumina is α-alumina (α-Al2O3). Brown fused alumina is made by electric arc furnace smelting under high temperature with the raw materials of bauxite, anthracite, and scrap iron. It is characterized by high hardness, toughness, and abrasion resistance. It is purified, impurity removal, crystallization, sorting, crushing, magnetic separation, screening, etc. Processing means making products of various particle sizes. Brown corundum P sand is processed by further sieving and washing process based on brown corundum F sand standard. It has the characteristics of high grinding force, good self-sharpening, strong toughness, and good cleanliness. The brown fused alumina P grain has a more aggregative distribution than the F grain, with sharpness and evenly distributive features, bringing more efficiency for surface treatment. Brown fused aluminum oxide P grain is widely used in coated abrasive such as abrasive cloth, abrasive paper, abrasive belts, etc.
Introduction of brown fused alumina coated P sand P16~P1500:
brown fused alumina abrasive starts with the letter “P”, plus numerals to indicate that the larger the value, the finer the abrasive grain size. The particle size markers are: p240, p280, p320, p360, p400, p500, p600, p800, p1000, p1200, p1500. Through further sieving and washing process, the brown corundum P sand is processed on the basis of the brown corundum F sand standard. Brown corundum P sand is not calcined at high temperature and has a sharp shape, high grinding ability and good self-sharpening. Brown corundum P sand is mainly used to coat abrasive tools. Sand has a sharper, needle-like shape, a relatively low bulk density, and a relatively concentrated particle size distribution.

Brown Fused Alumina（FAQ）
What is melting vs. Sintering?
When processing minerals in a furnace, materials can either be melted or sintered. When materials are melted during the production process the minerals go from a solid state, to a liquid state, then is re-solidified during the cooling process creating uniformity in the chemistry throughout the entire batch. The sinerting process
What does the form factor (grain shape) indicate?
The description of the grain shape can range from “angular” to “acicular” to “spherical”. When the value of the dimensionless form factor is 1, the grain is spherical. The smaller the form factor, the pointier the grain.
What is the difference between aluminium oxide and white fused alumina?
Al2O3 alumina is the starting material of aluminium production, both of metallic aluminium and aluminium oxide. It is porous an has a large reactive surface.
What is your sample policy?
We can supply the sample if we have ready parts in stock, but the customers have to pay the sample cost and the courier cost.
How long is your delivery time?
Around 30 working days after receiving prepayment.
