What You Don't Know About Abrasives: Natural Abrasive Materials
Powdered abrasive raw materials have been used in ship sandblasting for quite some time, but now some shipyards have begun to study alternatives to sandblasting. For example, the steel shot peening technology is used to remove the oxide scale and rust on the surface of the steel plate, and then the primer is sprayed in the spraying workshop, which can protect the steel plate from rusting during the shipbuilding process. The increase in shipbuilding has also increased the number and size of segments. At present, the sectional brick spraying rooms of various factories can no longer meet the requirements of secondary rust removal. Therefore, more and more abrasive material suppliers have begun to adopt the outdoor copper slag spraying process.
Innovations in abrasive materials have significantly improved corrosion resistance in marine environments, ensuring longer-lasting protection for ships. One such advancement is the use of high-density abrasives that offer superior durability and performance. For instance, our wholesale tabular alumina provide exceptional hardness and thermal stability, making it ideal for combating harsh marine conditions. These innovations not only enhance the lifespan of vessels but also reduce maintenance costs over time.
