Over 96,000 tons of alumina powder produced in 5 months - Tehran Times

Oct 23, 2024Oct 23, 2024

TEHRAN- Production of alumina powder in Iran stood at 96,685 tons during the first five months of the current Iranian calendar year (March 20-August 21), according to the data released by Iranian Mines and Mining Industries Development and Renovation Organization (IMIDRO).

Aluminum oxide, which is commonly called alumina, is an inert, odorless, white amorphous material often used in industrial ceramics.

Alumina is an important ceramic material for industrial applications. The numerous fields of application range from construction materials, to filling materials, as well as abrasives and catalysts.

In plants and mechanical engineering, alumina ceramics are mainly used for wear and corrosion protection.

The particle size distribution largely determines the application range and the quality of an alumina powder. Reliably identifying the differences in particle size is therefore an essential requirement of the measuring instrument.
