Aluminium Oxide Brown

Industrial grade material. Will comes in polypack or corrugated box packaging.

Aluminium Oxide brown (Al2O3), also known as alumina, is a brown, crystalline powder produced by heating aluminum hydroxide. This calcination process increases the purity and hardness of the material, making it suitable for a variety of industrial applications. It is chemically inert and non-toxic, possessing high melting and boiling points.

Applications:

• Abrasives: Used in sandpapers, cutting tools, and grinding wheels due to its hardness.
• Ceramics: As a raw material in the production of advanced ceramics, including electrical insulators, spark plugs, and cutting tools.
• Catalyst Support: Acts as a support material for catalysts in chemical reactions, particularly in the petrochemical industry.
• Refractory Material: Utilized in furnaces, kilns, and other high-temperature environments.
• Electrical Insulation: Employed in electronic components due to its dielectric properties.
• Polishing Compounds: Used in the polishing of metals, glasses, and stones.

Handling:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Use appropriate PPE, such as gloves, safety goggles, and dust masks, to avoid direct contact and inhalation.
• Ventilation: Ensure proper ventilation when handling the powder to prevent inhalation of dust.
• Avoid Inhalation: Minimize airborne dust through careful handling and the use of dust control measures.
• Spill Handling: Sweep up any spills using a vacuum or wet methods to avoid generating dust. Dispose of the material in accordance with local regulations.

Storage:

• Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances such as strong acids and bases.
• Container: Keep the material in tightly sealed containers to protect it from moisture and contamination.
• Labeling: Clearly label the containers with appropriate hazard information.
• Shelf Life: When stored properly, aluminium oxide calcined has a long shelf life without significant degradation in quality.
