Features
[Brown alumina abrasive]
Abrasive made from alumina composed of bauxite and melted/reduced and coagulated in an electric furnace. It can be used in a wide range of fields because it features moderate toughness and a large grinding force.
[Main applications]
Base treatment prior to thermal spray Thermal spray removal processing Pre-paint base treatment Paint removal processing Deburring Emboss processing Grindstone raw materials Polishing paper raw materials

Features
[White alumina abrasive]
Highly pure alumina abrasive made of alumina refined using the Bayer process and melted in an electric furnace. It is purer than brown alumina and is therefore more versatile in a wide range of fields.
[Main applications]
Base treatment Lapping and blasting of metal, glass and crystal Floor materials Refractory raw materials Grindstone raw materials Polishing paper raw materials
