FAQ

TAOANG Industrial is headquartered in Zhengzhou, Henan Province. The factory is located in Henan Sanmenxia corundum Industrial Park. In 2007, the partners jointly built the Sanmenxia Xinfeng Abrasives Factory, which is mainly engaged in producing and processing brown fused alumina. In 2018, Taoang Industry continued to make a white fused alumina factory in Zhaigen Industrial Park, Sanmenxia City, mainly engaged in producing and processing white fused alumina, dense fused, and bubble alumina.

Why is corundum or silicon carbide used?

Corundum is the most frequently used abrasive. The purer the corundum, the harder it also is, which can be determined from the colour. The toughness can be increased by adding various metal oxides and by shortening the cooling process in production. The following distinctions are made: Brown fused alumina with

What is fepa and what does it do?

FEPA is the Federation of European Producers of Abrasives. Its mission is to develop and publish standards, documents and comprehensive safety instructions for the abrasive industry. Abrasive grain sizes are produced and sold according to the FEPA standard, among other things. This is to ensure that a consistent quality for

What is the d50 value?

The d50 indicates the mean particle size. d50 means that 50% of particles fall within the specified grain size.

What does the bulk weight indicate and what impacts the bulk weight?

According to the FEPA, the bulk density of an abrasive is the quotient of the mass and the volume a grain type poured out in a particular manner will occupy. The bulk density, also called bulk weight, is stated in g/cm3. The rounder the particles, the higher the packing density,

What is the specific weight?

The specific weight is the ratio of the weight of a body to its volume. The specific weight of corundum under normal conditions is 3.94 g/cm3.

How do i prevent moisture contamination in the abrasive?

Moisture contamination is the number one reason customers call Technical Support. Fortunately, it is usually preventable. There are 4 key ways to keep your abrasive free of moisture:1.Store abrasive properly and always make sure bottles are tightly closed when not in use.2.Keep abrasive in a cool dry location with minimum

What are the different coated abrasive grain types and their characteristics?

Aluminum Oxide – Aluminum Oxide is brown or reddish in color and a man-made abrasive. It is durable with tough cutting edges. It offers long life and is highly wear resistant even under stress applications. Its applications include aluminum, ferrous metals (including alloy steel), hardwood, and leather. Crocus – Crocus
