    Introduction to garnet

     

    Garnet, with the chemical formula A3B2(SiO4)3, is a common silicate mineral. Its main components include calcium, magnesium, iron, aluminum and other elements. Garnet has a high hardness of 6.5-7.5, a hard texture, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and is an ideal natural abrasive.

    Garnet is a natural silicate mineral, and its main components are aluminum oxide, silicon oxide and iron oxide. Garnet has the characteristics of high hardness, good wear resistance and strong chemical stability, so it is widely used in the industrial field. Garnet has various colors, the common ones are red, yellow, green, etc., and its particle size can be screened according to needs.



    Chemical and physical indicators of garnet

    Advantages of garnet as abrasive


    Efficient rust removal: Garnet has good grinding performance and can effectively remove rust, layers, grease and other dirt on the metal surface. Compared with traditional rust removal methods such as sandpaper and wire brushes, garnet sandblasting rust removal is faster and more effective.

    Green and environmentally friendly: Garnet is a natural mineral, pollution-free and non-toxic. During the sandblasting rust removal process, no harmful gases and dust are generated, which is beneficial to protecting the environment and human health.

     

    High durability: Garnet has high hardness, good wear resistance and long service life. During the sandblasting rust removal process, the consumption rate of garnet abrasive is relatively slow, which reduces production costs.

    Wide range of application: Garnet abrasive is suitable for surface treatment of various metals, concrete and other materials, such as ships, bridges, pipelines, storage tanks, etc.

     


    Application of garnet in sandblasting and rust removal

     

    Sandblasting equipment: Sandblasting equipment using garnet as abrasive mainly includes sandblasting guns, sandblasting tanks, air compressors, etc. During the sandblasting process, garnet abrasive is placed in the sandblasting tank, and the abrasive is sprayed onto the surface of the object to be rusted through the air compressor.

     

    Sandblasting process: Sandblasting and rust removal processes mainly include dry sandblasting and wet sandblasting. Dry sandblasting is to spray garnet abrasive directly onto the surface of the object, which is suitable for rust removal of most metal materials; wet sandblasting is to spray garnet abrasive after mixing it with water, which is suitable for metal materials with high surface quality requirements.



    Effect of garnet's conductivity on sandblasting rust removal



    Sandblasting rust removal uses high-pressure gas to spray abrasives onto the metal surface to achieve the purpose of rust removal, decontamination, polishing, etc. Garnet has the following advantages as an abrasive in sandblasting rust removal:

    Low conductivity: Garnet has a low conductivity, which can effectively prevent the damage of electric current to the metal surface and ensure the integrity of the metal surface.

    High hardness: Garnet has a high hardness and can effectively remove rust and oxide layers on the metal surface, improving the finish of the metal surface.

    Good wear resistance: Garnet has good wear resistance and long service life, reducing the cost of sandblasting rust removal.

    Strong chemical stability: Garnet will not react chemically with the metal surface during sandblasting rust removal, ensuring the quality of the metal surface.

     


    Key points of operation: During the sandblasting process, operators should pay attention to the following points:

     

    (1) Ensure that the sandblasting equipment is working properly and the pressure is stable;

     

    (2) Select the appropriate garnet abrasive particle size to achieve the ideal rust removal effect;

     

    (3) Control the sandblasting speed to avoid being too fast or too slow to avoid affecting the rust removal effect;

     

    (4) Maintain the sandblasting distance, generally 150-300mm, to obtain a uniform rust removal effect;

     

    (5) Pay attention to the moving speed of the sandblasting gun to avoid staying in the same position for too long and over-grinding locally.
