Alumina Refractory

Bauxite (aluminous soil; bauxite), also known as alumina or bauxite, main ingredients are aluminum oxide, hydrate alumina containing impurities, is an earthy mineral. White or grey, brown yellow or light red by iron. From 4 to 3.9 g/cm3 density, hardness, H&X garnet price, opaque, very brittle. Very difficult to melt. Insoluble in water, soluble in sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide solution. Mainly used for aluminium, refractory material.
Main ingredients
The scientific name bauxite bauxite, bauxite. Its composition is extremely complex, a variety of geological sources vary the floorboard of the hydrous alumina ore. As water soft LvShi, hard LvShi monohydrate and sanshui LvShi (Al2O3 · 3 h2o); Have a plenty of diaspore and kaolinite (2 sio2, Al2O3, 2 h2o) company; Some is given priority to with kaolinite, and with higher content of kaolinite, the form for general bauxite or kaolinite clay. Bauxite is generally formed by the chemical weathering or exogenous, there are few pure mineral, mineral always contains some impurities, more or less contain clay minerals, iron ore, titanium minerals and clastic heavy H&X silicon carbide manufacturers and so on.
Bauxite definition names is not enough unity, this is related to resources from all countries and industrial demand. Name of various periods are inconsistent, but basically the same. In China it is generally believed: "bauxite refers to the aluminum content of ore is higher (40%), al-si ratio (A/S (2.5 or higher) is greater than 2.5, which is less than the numerical value is called clay or shale or aluminum bauxite rock". In China's proven reserves of bauxite, LvShiXing monohydrate bauxite accounts for about 98% of the country's total reserves.
