Usually, the calcination temperature is between 1200 ℃ and 1600 ℃, and the calcination time depends on specific process requirements.
2.3 Crushing and Grading
The calcined alumina block needs to be crushed and graded to obtain the desired micro powder particle size. The crushing methods include mechanical crushing, air flow crushing, etc., while classification is achieved through screening or air flow classification. By controlling the crushing and grading process, alumina micro powder with a specific particle size distribution can be obtained.
