White Fused Alumina (WFA), also known as white corundum, is produced by melting high‑purity industrial alumina powder in electric arc furnace at 2000‑2050 ℃. After crystallization, cooling, crushing, magnetic iron‑removal and size classification, we get angular grains and fine powders with main crystal phase α‑Al₂O₃.
It features pure white color, high alumina purity and low impurity content. Mohs hardness reaches 9.0 with melting point 2250 ℃. Comparing with brown fused alumina, WFA owns higher hardness, good self‑sharpening performance and excellent chemical resistance against acid and alkali. Low iron and low‑sodium grades avoid discoloration under high‑temperature service conditions.
Key Features:
‑ Melting point 2250 ℃, outstanding high‑temperature resistance and slag corrosion resistance.
‑ High hardness and sharp angular grain structure with good self‑sharpening property.
‑Strictly controlled Fe₂O₃ and Na₂O impurities to prevent discoloration and bloating at high temperature.
‑ Excellent chemical inertness against most acids and alkalis.
Available Grades:
-Standard refractory grade: Al₂O₃ ≥99.0%
‑ High‑purity low‑sodium grade: Al₂O₃ ≥99.2%, Na₂O ≤0.2% (for premium corundum castables & bricks)
Main Applications:
‑ Refractory industry: aggregate for corundum castables, LCC & ULCC castables and other monolithic refractories; raw material for corundum bricks, crucibles and high‑temperature kiln components.
‑ Abrasive field: grinding wheels, cutting discs, sandblasting, lapping and polishing media.
‑ Advanced ceramics, thermal spraying materials and precision investment casting.
