Garnet, geology jargon, one of the major rock mantle minerals. Garnet crystal is similar to pomegranate seeds in shape and color, hence the name "Garnet." The garnet with good color and high net can be a gem.
Garnet hardness is moderate (6.5 to 8.0), high melting point (1170 ~ 1280 ℃), good chemical stability, density 3.5 ~ 4.3g / cm, a refractive index of 1.714 ~ 1.887, different colors, there are purple, blood red, dark red, maroon, reddish brown, yellow, bright green, black and so on.
There almandine garnet, magnesium aluminum, manganese and aluminum, calcium, aluminum, calcium and iron, calcium, chromium of six, including almandine garnet highest hardness, good chemical stability, high-grade natural abrasive.

Application of garnet abrasive blasting surface preparation utensils Spray / before plating aspects
Before garnet abrasive is a large number of applications, commonly used in abrasive blasting are: quartz sand, stone cross, copper slag, nickel slag, glass beads, corundum and so on. Quartz sand, stone cross, copper slag, nickel slag, glass beads, the presence of low grade blast cleaning, and harmful to the environment and other issues. Garnet abrasive blasting can easily reach the most stringent requirements for industrial and military blasting the environment and humans, a good working environment sandblasting, and affordable, it is possible to easily other conventional abrasive blasting.
