Aluminium Oxide White (Grit 80M) — also known as White Fused Alumina (WFA) — is a high-purity abrasive made from fusing alumina (Al₂O₃) in electric arc furnaces. The "Grit 80M" refers to a medium-fine grade (typically ~180–212 microns) commonly used in surface treatment and finishing applications.

This material is valued for its hardness, high melting point, chemical stability, and purity, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial, construction, and specialty uses.

🔹 Key Properties of Aluminium Oxide White (80M Grit)

    • Crucibles

    • Insulating bricks

IV. Flooring & Anti-Slip Surfaces
  • Alumina grit is embedded into epoxy coatings, resin floors, or tiles to improve:

    • Abrasion resistance

    • Anti-slip properties

  • Grit 80M offers a balance between grip and cleanability.

V. Laminates & Decorative Surfaces
  • Used in decorative laminates (e.g., countertops, panels) for:

    • Surface hardness

    • Scratch resistance

    • Improved durability

VI. Filtration Media
  • Acts as a filter media in high-temperature or corrosive fluid systems where other materials fail.

  • Also used in water purification systems as a non-reactive, inert support layer.

VII. Precision Casting & Investment Casting
  • Used as a shell material or mold additive in investment casting due to:

    • Thermal stability

    • Non-wettability with molten metals

  • Ensures smooth casting surfaces, especially in aerospace or medical applications.

ALUMINIUM OXIDE ( GRIT - 220 )

We are the leading manufactures, exporters,technical developers and suppliers of  ALIMINIM OXIDE 
( GRIT - 220 ) Powder in Chennai, Tamil Nadu,

Uses and applications of Brown Aluminium Oxide (also known as Brown Fused Alumina or BFA) across various industries:

🔶 What is Brown Aluminium Oxide?

Brown Aluminium Oxide is a hard, tough, and durable abrasive material made by fusing bauxite in an electric arc furnace. It consists mainly of Aluminum Oxide (Al₂O₃) with a small percentage of Titania (TiO₂) and other impurities.

  • Hardness: ~9 on Mohs scale

  • Color: Brown

  • Melting Point: ~2,050°C

  • Typical Grit Sizes: F12 to F220 (macro), F240 to F1200 (micro)

🛠️ Primary Applications:1. Abrasives Industry
  • Grinding wheels: Used in resin-bonded and vitrified wheels for grinding hardened steel, alloy steel, and cast iron.

  • Sandpaper & abrasive cloth: Ideal for both wet and dry applications.

  • Blasting media: For surface preparation, rust removal, and finishing of metals, concrete, and composites.

  • Polishing: Suitable for rough and intermediate polishing operations.

2. Refractory Industry
  • Refractory bricks & castables: Used in linings for furnaces, kilns, and incinerators due to its high heat resistance.

  • Ceramic shapes & tiles: In applications requiring thermal stability and abrasion resistance.

3. Surface Preparation
  • Shot blasting and sandblasting: For cleaning, deburring, and roughening surfaces before coating or painting.

  • Etching & frosting of glass: Achieves decorative or functional textures.

4. Metalworking
  • Lapping & honing: In precision metal finishing.

  • Tool sharpening: Used in stones and belts for sharpening cutting tools.

5. Anti-Skid Surfaces
  • Used in floor coatingsrunways, and steps for enhancing traction and preventing slips.

6. Ceramic & Tile Industry
  • As a raw material additive to improve wear resistance and strength of ceramics.

7. Water Filtration
  • Sometimes used as a media in industrial filtration systems, especially for high-speed filtration of contaminants.

✅ Advantages of Brown Aluminium Oxide:
  • High hardness and toughness

  • Reusable in blasting applications

  • Thermally stable at high temperatures

  • Electrically non-conductive

  • Cost-effective compared to White Fused Alumina

    7. Food Industry (Controlled/Indirect Use)
    • Purpose: Food additive (processing aid).

    • Applications:

      • In regulated, limited amounts, used to adjust pH or as a firming agent in food processing.

      • More commonly used indirectly in sugar refining and food-grade lime production.

    8. Desiccant and Drying Agent
    • Purpose: Moisture removal.

    • Applications:

      • Used to dry gases, alcohols, and solvents in chemical processes.

      • Acts as a powerful moisture absorbent in storage and packaging of industrial goods.

    Key Features of Calcium Oxide:
