Indicators that affect the performance of polishing powder
(1) Particle size of powder: determines the polishing accuracy and speed, commonly expressed as the number of mesh and the average particle size of the powder. The number of sieved mesh can grasp the relative particle size of the powder, and the average particle size determines the overall level of polishing powder particle size.
(2) Mohs hardness of powder: Powder with relatively high hardness has a faster cutting effect, and adding some grinding aids can also improve the cutting effect; There will be significant differences in different application fields, including their own processing techniques
(3) Powder suspension performance: Good powder requires polishing powder to have good suspension performance. The shape and particle size of the powder have a certain impact on the suspension performance. Polishing powder with finer sheet shape and particle size has relatively better suspension performance, but it is not the right choice. The improvement of the suspension performance of polishing powder can also be achieved by adding suspension (agent)
(4) Crystal form of powder: The crystal form of powder is a single crystal particle that aggregates together, which determines the cutting ability, wear resistance, and flowability of the powder. The single crystal particles agglomerated with powder are separated (broken) during the polishing process, resulting in a gradual decrease in their cutting and wear resistance. Irregular hexagonal crystalline particles have good cutting, wear resistance, and flowability
(5) Appearance color: The content of Pr in the raw material is related to factors such as ignition temperature. The higher the praseodymium content, the brownish red color of the powder will appear. Low cerium polishing powder contains a large amount of praseodymium (cerium praseodymium material), making it appear brownish red. High cerium polishing powder, the higher the ignition temperature, the more white and pink it appears. At low temperatures (around 900 degrees Celsius), it appears light yellow
Particle size
The larger the particle size of cerium oxide, the greater the grinding force, and the more suitable for harder materials. ZF glass should use finer polishing powder. It should be noted that there is a distribution problem with the particle size of all ceria. The average particle size or median diameter D50 only determines the speed of polishing, while the particle size Dmax determines the level of polishing accuracy. Therefore, in order to achieve high precision requirements, it is necessary to control the particle size of the polishing powder
Hardness
The true hardness of polishing powder is related to the material, for example, the hardness of cerium oxide is around 7 Mohs hardness, and all types of cerium oxide are similar. But different ceria bodies give people a different feeling of hardness because ceria polishing powders are usually agglomerates. The attached image shows an electron microscope photo of a polishing powder agglomerate. Due to different firing temperatures, the strength of aggregates also varies, resulting in a different feeling of hardness when used. Of course, adding harder materials such as aluminum oxide to some polishing powders can improve the grinding rate and wear resistance
