Garnet description:
Garnet sand is made of garnet as raw material. It is a kind of iron-aluminum silicate with moderate hardness, high melting point and stable chemical properties. According to different products and structures, it presents different colors, such as dark red, brown red, pink and black. Widely used in optical industry, electronic industry, machinery industry, oil and gas and other industries.
