Garnet is ground to a variety of sizes to be used as an abrasive. Garnet sandpaper was the
original application of this mineral. It is also used to make a number of similar products,
including sanding belts, discs, and strips. Today, the vast majority of garnet is used as an
abrasive blasting material, for water filtration, in a process called water jet cutting, and
to make abrasive powders. A number of natural and synthetic materials could be used in place
of garnet for abrasive purposes. The natural materials include the minerals staurolite,
quartz, diamond and corundum. The synthetic materials include fused aluminum oxide and
silicon carbide. The Garnet Specification and Industry: Only iron garnet, almandine and to a lesser extent, glosularite are used in the manufacture
of abrasive like coated garnet paper and cloth and discs glued with sodium silicate. The
common bonding materials used for the manufacture of discs are magnesium oxide and magnesium
chloride. Garnet is crushed, sieved and graded into various sizes and thus coated abrasives
of various fineness are prepared. Garnet crusher abrasives are used mostly for wood
polishing. Finer grains of micron sizes are used as tumbling chemicals, grits for optical
glass polishing and also ceramics and glasses. In modern practice, broken garnet pieces are
preheated to a temperature varying from 700 to 1000C before crushing to various grain
sizes. It is reported that the toughness, fracture and colour of the garnet is improved on
heating and quenching.
