Alumina for Industrial Applications

Alumina, also known as aluminum oxide, is a highly durable and versatile abrasive that is widely used in industrial applications. Its exceptional hardness makes it ideal for a variety of processes, including grinding, lapping, and polishing of metallic and non-metallic materials. Alumina abrasives are particularly effective in creating smooth finishes on workpieces, enhancing their functionality and aesthetic appeal. Advanced Abrasives offers a wide selection of alumina products, available in various grit sizes and formulations, to ensure optimal performance for every application.

Boron Carbide for Industrial Applications

Boron carbide stands out for its incredible hardness, coming second only to diamond. This extraordinary material excels in high-stress environments where other abrasives might falter. It is extensively used for abrasive blasting and nozzle linings and in the engineering of wear-resistant parts. Its ability to withstand extreme conditions also makes it suitable for use in ballistic armor. Our boron carbide products are engineered for precision and durability, allowing businesses to achieve superior results in their manufacturing and processing activities.

Cerium Oxide for Industrial Applications

Cerium oxide is trusted for its diverse polishing capabilities, especially in the optical and glass industries. Its unique chemical composition facilitates the removal of surface imperfections, yielding exceptionally smooth and clear finishes. This makes it an indispensable abrasive for the production of high-precision optics, mirrors, and glass components. We supply premium cerium oxide formulations that are optimized for effectiveness and efficiency.

Silicon Carbide for Industrial Applications

Silicon carbide is a fantastic abrasive option for conventional needs and is well-known and trusted for its sharpness and thermal conductivity. It is effective in the cutting, grinding, and polishing of hard materials such as stone, metals, and ceramics. Its thermal resistance makes it particularly useful in applications involving high temperatures. Our company provides silicon carbide offerings for many different industrial needs, providing exceptional performance in even the most demanding processes.

Colloidal Silica for Industrial Applications

Colloidal silica is a non-crystalline form of silicon dioxide suspended in a liquid medium. It is favored for its gentle polishing action, making it suitable for delicate surfaces that require a high degree of precision. This abrasive is commonly used in the electronics industry for the planarization and smoothing of semiconductor materials. Advanced Abrasives’ colloidal silica is formulated to provide controlled particle size and distribution.
