| SOLID
GLASS BEADS ( 100 microns To 10,000 microns ) 0.1 mm. to 10 mm
DESCRIPTION
Glass Beads are
solid Glass Spheres. They should not be confused with
Costume jewellery having the hole.
They are manufactured
from high grade Soda Lime Silica Glass containing SiO2
around 70%.
They are free from free Lead, Iron and Silica. They are manufactured from colourless glass for most of the uses. They can be manufactured from other than
Soda
Lime Silica Glass and also in coloured glass, depending upon
customers requirement.
Normal size range being 5 mm to
0.1 mm and can be manufactured above 5 mm depending upon
customers need.
USES
AS GRINDING &
DISPERSING MEDIUM : Glass Beads are replacing the WET conventional grinding
media :
Ottawa Sand, Ceramic Balls, Steel Balls, Pebbles etc., as
Grinding & Dispersing medium in
Sand Mills,
Ball Mills, Pot Mills, Attrition Mills etc.
These Beads will be
of interest to the following Industries :
a)
Paints
b)
Pigments
c)
Ink & Printing Inks.
d)
Dyes
e)
Chemicals
f)
Cosmetics
g)
Gums and Waxes etc.
AS SHOT BLASTING
MEDIUM :
Blasting with
Glass Beads under pressure with Blasting Equipment maintains close
control
over all foreign matters down to the base metal without
dimensional change, without
contamination and without overstressing. It produces a
consistent metallurgical clean
surface finish. Conventional Blasting Materials such
as Aluminium Oxide, Sand, Steel
Shots will either leave a Chemical Film on the blasted
surface or have cutting action. Shot
Blasting with the Glass Beads completely prepares metal surface
for any type of coating
on it such as painting, plating enameling or glass lining.
Here are some of the application.
There are two
methods for shot Blasting. Namely ,
1)
WET SHOT BLASTING
2)
DRY BLASTING
A.
OTHER INDUSTRIAL AND SCIENTIFIC USES :
B.
AS A COOLANT FOR TRANSFORMER OIL :
C.
AS AN EVEN DISTRIBUTOR OF TEMPERATURE IN FLUIDISED BEDS :
D.
AS A FILTERING MEDIUM :
E.
AS A TOOL IN RESEARCH
