WA is the most widely known abrasive powder, popularly known as Arundum.
Al2O3 white fused alumina is made from high-grade alumina powder and smelt in high temperature electric furnace.
White fused alumina has higher hardness and slightly lower toughness than brown fused aluminum oxide.
Beacuse of its high purity, strong grinding ability, white fused alumina is suitable for grinding and polishing of cutting tools, precision-castings, spraying and coasting, medium body for chemical industry applications, special ceramics and high-grade refractory materials.
