Reade Advanced Materials Garnet Powder (Fe₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃)
Categories:	Ceramic; Oxide; Silicon Oxide
Material Notes:	A group of iron aluminum silicate homogeneous minerals having similar properties. Non-hygroscopic, sharp angular shape, inert, slightly magnetic, not soluble in water, translucent, friable to tough, and contains no free chemicals. All oxides and dioxides are combined chemically as follows: Fe2O3Al2(SiO4)3. The iron and aluminum are partially replaceable by calcium, magnesium and manganese. There are three types- aluminum garnet, iron garnet & chromium garnet. Uses: Abrasive applications, water jet cutting, water filtration, tumbling media, non-skid surfaces, and semi-precious stone. Forms Available: Sintered pieces, targets, granules and various powder sizings Information provided by Reade Advanced Materials.
Key Words:	Fe3Al2(SiO4)3, Iron aluminum silicate
