1. Ceramic Foundry Sand Introduction
Ceramic Sand Spherical Foundry Ceramsite Sand
Ceramic sand ( ceramsite sand ) is an advanced substitute for quartz sand in the casting field. Ceramic sand is made from calcined bauxite with the main content of aluminum oxide processed by melting, blowing, sieving and blending. After melting calcined bauxite with 65-90% aluminum oxide in a high-temperature electric arc melting device, the outflow of ceramic blown into fine particles. Then after cooling and sieving, the ceramic sand become finished particles with different size grade.
