How about the quality of machine-made granite sand

 Let’s check its ingredients first! Among the mineral particles that make up granite, more than 90% are feldspar and quartz, among which feldspar is the most. Feldspar is often white, gray, and flesh red, and quartz is mostly colorless or off-white, which constitute the basic tone of granite. Both feldspar and quartz are hard minerals that are difficult to scratch with a steel knife.


As for the dark specks in the granite, it’s mainly biotite, but also some other minerals. Although biotite is relatively soft, its ability to resist pressure is not weak. At the same time, their weight in granite is very small, often less than 10%. This is the material conditions under which granite is particularly strong. Therefore, sand with high compressive strength can be obtained by using granite sand.

Sandblasting nozzle classification and use

Using high-pressure air as a power source to drive abrasive particles to hit objects within a certain range will produce a great impact. The function of the sandblasting nozzle is to spray abrasive particles on the object evenly and efficiently. Sandblasting nozzles can be divided into: straight hole sandblasting nozzle, Venturi sandblasting nozzle , double Venturi sandblasting nozzle, angle sandblasting nozzle Straight hole nozzle: There are only contraction section and straight section inside, the structure is simple and easy to manufacture. This kind of nozzle cannot overcome the vortex phenomenon existing at the inlet end, and the pressure loss is large; the abrasive velocity at the outlet is less than 100m/s under the pressure of 0.7MPa.

Working principle and parameters of industrial slurry pump

In order for the industrial slurry pump to fully play its role, we need to understand the working principle of the industrial slurry pump: https://www.lzzgmachine.com/products/supporting-equipment/slurry-pump.html Under the action of centrifugal force, the liquid is thrown from the center of the impeller to the outer edge and gains energy to leave the outer edge of the impeller at a high speed and enter the volute pump shell. In the volute pump case, the Fluid is slowed down due to the gradual expansion of the flow channel, and part of the kinetic energy is converted into static pressure energy. At last, it flows into the discharge pipe and is sent to the place where it is needed. When the liquid flows from the center of the impeller to the outer edge, a certain vacuum is formed in the center of the impeller. Above the liquid level of the storage tank is greater than the pressure at the pump inlet, the liquid is continuously pressed into the impeller. LZZG slurry pump pe...

The difference between quartz and mica

Mica and quartz are common minerals that play an important role in mineralogy. Although they are both silicate minerals, there are clear differences between them. First, mica and quartz are very different in appearance. One of its distinguishing features is that mica exhibits a layered structure that can be easily peeled off into thin flakes. Quartz, on the other hand, is a uniform crystal with no layered structure. Additionally, mica is usually dark in color, such as black, brown, or green, while quartz is usually clear or white. Secondly, mica and quartz also differ in their physical and chemical properties. The hardness of mica is usually between 2.5 and 4, which is relatively easy to be scratched; while the hardness of quartz is very high, 7, which is a very hard mineral. In addition, mica has good refractive properties and electrical properties, while quartz is an excellent piezoelectric material.
