Calcined Alumina

Calcined Alumina is produced by heating alumina to certain controlled temperatures for various amounts of time. We use state-of-the-art process-control equipment to produce a range of high-alpha Calcined Alumina with controlled soda chemistry, surface areas and size distributions. Calcined Alumina has a surprisingly wide range of uses, based on the nature and range of its properties, including purity, chemical inertness, resistance to corrosion, extreme hardness, resistance to wear and abrasion, heat resistance, dimensional stability, high thermal conductivity, and electric resistivity.

Applications

Refractories grade

Used to produce unshaped refractories (high aluminum castables) and shaped refractories (corundum bricks) as well as monolithic and pre-cast shapes used in foundries to make steel and iron.

Ceramics grade

Used in wear-resistant ceramics, glazes, high-heat resistant tiles and porcelains, and electric and electronic ceramics.

Polishing grade

Used for grinding and precision lapping and polishing of aluminum, steel, stainless steel, copper, stone, glass, wall and floor bricks.
