Mineral Powders

Garnet powder is based on the material of natural almandine with modern technique. With the feature self-sharpening, high polishing efficiency, low consuming and well fineness of the polisher, the products are fit to electronic industry semiconductor, fluorescent screen, of galvanize, they have high efficiency.

Garnet Application:

Unlike the artificial abrasives, Micronised Garnet Powder makes a fine polish with less/minor cracks on the applied surface leaves a beautiful gloss on the surface polished. This is used extensively in fine polishing of TV tubes, Computer Monitors, Bulbs and various delicate materials requirng high gloss.

Talc powder is mostly used in pulverized form. It is valued for its exterme softness, smoothness, high lubticating, hiding power and its ability to absorb oil. It has been also found to be an excellent filler. It can withstand temperatures upto 1300° C.

Range 4 microns to 20 microns.

• Chemically inert to acids and alkalise.
• Low electrical and thermal conductivity.

Talc Application:

Paper Industry:

• Increases the retention of fillers and opacity.
• Controls pitch globules.

Paint Industry:

• Reinforces the paint films by preventing sagging.
• Prevents the setting of solids to the bottom of the container.
• Contributes minium abrasion to the process and applicator.
• Reduction in the quantity of primary pigment consumed.

Plastic Industry:

• Used as a filler.
• Improves chemical and heat resistance, impact, strength and dimension stability.

Cosmetic Industry:

• Used in a number of applications including colour make-up, dermopadediatric preparation and talcum powder.

Textile Industry:

• Used both as loading and bleaching material such as cotton sacks, cordage, rope and string.

Ceramic Industry:

• Used in white ware bodies, electrical porcelain, high frequency insulators, tiles and kiln furniture.

Rubber Industry:

• Used as a filler.
• Provides insulation required in the cable industry.
• Acts as a dusting and anti blocking agent.

Rutile Powder is a dye obtained from an impure earthy ore of ferruginous, usually red (hematite) or yellow (limonite). In addition to being the principal ore of iron, hematite is a constituent of a number of abrasives and pigments.

• Used in manufacturing ferro-alloys.
• Used in manufacturing welding fluxes.

Quartz has become one of today's key strategic raw materials raw materials for the high-tech industry. Silica glass melted out of quartz offers a wide range of exceptional optical, mechanical and thermal properties, which are essential for manufacturing many high-tech products in areas such as Semi-conductor Technologies, High Temperature Lamp Tubing, Telecommunications and Optics.

 

Quartz Application:

• High quality telescopes and laboratory optical lense
• Fiber optical cables
• Semiconductors
• High intensity lamps
• Ultra pure Quartz glass
• Synthetic Quartz wafers
• Crucibles for the production of Solar Grade Silicon
• Quartz wool for high temperature insulation
• Fillers for electronics
• Flame control Devices

 

High purity quartz in electronics:

 

The main products from ultra pure quartz glass in lighting industry are quartz tubes. The tubes are used for high-temperature mercury, halogen a and UV lamps, thermocouples, semiconductor products, wave-guide auxiliaries and other quartz with low content of water in the crystal lattice, used in casing and bandages for UV and ozone lamps, medical and chemical equipment and in latest models of semiconductor devices. Tubes from melted quartz of high chemical purity and high heat resistance are perfect furnaces for production of silicon wafers for semiconductor industry. The tubes have a diameter of up to 550 mm with an overall content of impurities less than 25 ppm.
