More than half of all titanium dioxide pigment is used in the production of paints (household, industrial and automotive etc.) as it reflects the sun’s harmful UV rays and protects paint from peeling. Titanium dioxide is also an important ingredient in the manufacturing of sunscreen, cosmetics, plastics, ink, paper, toothpaste and some foods such as flour and icing sugar to improve their brightness.       https://www.salgo.in/rutile-sand.htm https://www.salgo.in/rutile-sand.htm Thu, 01 May 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Rutile is a mineral composed primarily of titanium dioxide, TiO2. Rutile is the most common natural form of TiO2. Rutile is used in three major applications: titanium dioxide pigment, flux core welding wire and titanium metal production.   Rutile, when processed into titanium dioxide pigment, can be used in the same products as ilmenite. Rutile is sometimes the preferred source for titanium dioxide pigment as it provides the most efficient product with the least waste in manufacture.   Flux core welding wire is the preferred welding consumable for pressure vessels, petrochemical piping, and heavy-equipment manufacturing, as flux core wire stabilises the electric arc ensuring a superior joint. Rutile can also be converted into titanium sponge, which is then processed into titanium metal. Titanium metal’s unique properties include its high strength-to-weight ratio, high melting point and resistance to corrosion. This makes rutile a preferred metal in the aerospace industry for manufacturing aircraft frames and jet engines. It is also commonly used to produce top quality sporting equipment, pacemakers, artificial limbs, surgical equipment, spectacle frames and watches. When Titanium metal is mixed with other metals such as iron, manganese and aluminium, it forms alloys which are both temperature and corrosion resistant meaning they have a wide array of uses in difficult environments.   https://www.salgo.in/zircon.htm https://www.salgo.in/zircon.htm Sat, 14 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Zircon's exceptional qualities of hardness and durability make it a must-use for the manufacture of ceramics and refractory tiles and also for a range of other high-tech applications such as armour plating on military aircraft, heat shield in space shuttles and potentially as solid oxide fuel cells in hydrogen powered vehicles and in many industrial and chemical applications.More than 50% of all zircon is used in the ceramics industry due to zircon’s ability to impart opacity, (whiteness and brightness) and to create glazes on products such as tiles, sanitary-ware (baths, sinks and toilets) and crockery. Zircon is a hard and tough material as it maintains its physical and chemical composition when subjected to high temperatures and corrosive environments.    Zircon is used to block X-ray emissions in cathode ray tubes (CRT) found in computers and television monitors, to produce biomedical devices such as hip and knee replacements, rechargeable light weight batteries, television screens, fuses and toothpaste and also as a foundry sand for specialist investment casting or high-precision casting. https://www.salgo.in/sillimanite-sand.htm https://www.salgo.in/sillimanite-sand.htm Wed, 21 May 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Sillimanite as a natural and untreated mineral is a very important raw material for high alumina refractories. Sillimanite is obtained from high temperature, aluminum-rich vicinity. The industrial uses of sillimanite mineral specially related to their unique chemical and physical properties. High alumina content and lower fe2o3 and LOI contributes to its main chemical properties. Withstanding the high temperatures and pressure the material is highly suitable for refractory and foundry application. Sillimanite is extensively used in Iron and steel, Petrochemical, Electrical, Cement, Zinc and Glass industries, Refractory industry, foundry, Precision investment casting, electrical porcelains, sanitary ware and abrasives.   The sillimanite mineral in raw or calcined form is specially used in manufacturing of refractory bricks, shapes, castings, monolithics, ramming and gunning mixtures. https://www.salgo.in/garnet-abrasive.htm https://www.salgo.in/garnet-abrasive.htm Wed, 21 May 2025 00:00:00 +0530 We are the main supplier of this product. https://www.salgo.in/garnet-sand.htm https://www.salgo.in/garnet-sand.htm Thu, 01 May 2025 00:00:00 +0530 Salgo Garnet is highly efficient and effective as an abrasive due to this feature.
