What Is an Abrasive Powder?
Abrasive powder is a powdered abrasive tool produced by finely crushing abrasive particles.
It is applied to the workpiece by mixing it with a polishing liquid to polish the surface. Utilized in finishing and polishing metals, wood, plastics, etc., the mechanism involves mixing abrasive powder with a polishing liquid, such as water or oil, and applying it to the workpiece to polish the surface. It is commonly used in post-finishing processes for metalworking and plastic processing, while in woodworking, it is employed for preparatory treatment before painting.
Key features include the ability to perform fine polishing and suitability for finishing processes, making it applicable to various materials. When using abrasive powder, it is important to consider factors such as the type and grit size of the powder, the selection of polishing liquid, and ensuring safe usage.
