Reade Advanced Materials offers:

Bauxite

• Synonyms:
  
          Chinese bauxite, calcined bauxite, kiln bauxite, terra rossa bauxite, limestone bauxite, & white bauxite
   

• Formula: Al₂O₃ + SiO₂ + TiO₂ + Fe₂O₃

• General Description:

1) An impure mixture of aluminous minerals. There are four basic grades of bauxite- Chemical grade- (55-58% min. pure), Abrasive grade- (55% min. pure), Refractory grade- (59-61% min. pure) and Metallurgical grade- (50-55% min. pure).
2) The name bauxite is applied to earthy deposits and rock principally composed of one or more hydrated aluminum oxide mineral species. Bauxite contains a large number of impurities such as silica, iron and titanium oxides, and various other elements mostly in minor or trace amounts.

The hydrated aluminum oxide minerals are gibbsite, boehmite and diaspore. Both boehmite and diaspore are monohydrate and have the same chemical compositions, but diaspore is harder and has a higher specific gravity than boehmite. Gibbsite is an aluminum trihydrate mineral.

• Typical Chemical Properties Available:

Purities available from 98% (industrial grade) to 99.999% (high purity grade)

• Typical Physical Properties Available:

Physical properties vary widely according to the mine source. Granulations available include: 50 mm by down lumps, crushed coarse sizes (-3 mesh, -6 mesh, -8 mesh and -12 mesh) and ground powder sizes (-100 mesh, -200 mesh and -325 mesh)
