Alumine fondue blanche


Alumine fondue blanche (WFA) is a high purity synthetic mineral made from aluminum oxide. It is produced by melting a mixture of calcined alumina and a small amount of chromium oxide in an electric arc furnace at high temperatures. WFA has a very high degree of purity, with low levels of iron, sodium, and other impurities.

WFA is widely used in abrasive applications due to its hardness and toughness. It is commonly used in grinding wheels, sandpaper, and other abrasive products. WFA is also used in refractory materials, céramique, and as a raw material for the production of aluminum metal.

WFA is available in different grit sizes and can be used for a variety of applications depending on the desired surface finish and material removal rate. It is often preferred over brown fused alumina (BFA) due to its higher purity and toughness.

FAQ


20 Ton

Silicon carbide abrasives are harder and sharper than aluminum oxide abrasives, making them more aggressive and faster cutting. Cependant, they are also more brittle, which can lead to faster breakdown and shorter abrasive life.

Grit sizes for silicon carbide abrasives range from coarse (24 grit) to ultrafine (1200 grit) and are used for different applications, from rapid material removal to precision polishing.

To choose the right silicon carbide abrasive, consider factors like the material being worked on, the desired finish, the abrasive life, and the equipment being used. Generally, harder materials require finer grits, while softer materials can be worked with coarser grits.
