Introduction to Baozhu Sand

Baozhu Sand is a high-performance synthetic ceramic sand designed for precision casting and industrial applications. Manufactured from bauxite through high-temperature melting, spray granulation, and calcination, it features spherical particles with exceptional thermal and chemical stability. Unlike traditional sands like quartz or zircon, Baozhu Sand offers superior refractories and reusability, making it a cornerstone in modern casting processes for industries such as aerospace, automotive, and machinery.

Key Technical Parameters

PropertyValueSignificance

Refractoriness≥1790°CWithstands high-temperature alloys (e.g., stainless steel).
Thermal Expansion Coefficient2.5×10⁻⁶/°C (1/7 of quartz sand)Reduces casting defects from thermal stress.
Bulk Density1.8–2.2 g/cm³Optimizes packing density in molds.
Recycling RateUp to 90%Cost-effective and environmentally frie

Core Features & Advantages

  1. Exceptional Heat Resistance
    • Withstands molten metal temperatures up to 1800°C, ideal for high-alloy casting without deformation or degradation.

  2. Low Thermal Expansion
    • Minimizes thermal stress during cooling, reducing cracks and dimensional inaccuracies in castings.

  3. Spherical Geometry
    • Smooth, round particles improve mold filling, reduce friction, and enable intricate geometries in precision casting.

  4. High Reusability
    • Can be recycled repeatedly without significant loss of performance, lowering waste and operational costs.

  5. Chemical Inertness
    • Resists reactions with molten metals, preventing sand adhesion (veining) and ensuring smooth casting surfaces.

  6. Versatility
    • Compatible with multiple casting processes: resin sand, water glass sand, investment casting, and 3D printing (e.g., SLS, binder jetting).

Application Scenarios

  • Precision Investment Casting
    • Used in aerospace components (turbine blades), medical devices, and automotive parts for high surface finish and dimensional accuracy.

  • Sand Casting
    • Ideal for large steel, iron, and aluminum castings, reducing defects in complex molds.

  • 3D Printing for Foundry
    • Mixed with resins for 3D-printed sand molds, enabling rapid prototyping and customized casting solutions.

  • Surface Treatment
    • As a blasting media for deburring, cleaning, and surface finishing of metal parts.

  • Industrial Refractories
    • Used in kilns and furnaces for thermal insulation and high-temperature resistance.
