Abrasives are materials used for grinding, polishing, cutting, or shaping other materials by wear. These materials can be natural, like sandpaper made from garnet or emery, or synthetic, such as silicon carbide or aluminum oxide. Abrasives find extensive applications across industries like manufacturing, construction, automotive, and electronics. In manufacturing, they are crucial for shaping and finishing metals, ceramics, and composites. In construction, abrasives are used for smoothing surfaces and cutting materials like concrete and stone. In automotive, they aid in metal finishing, rust removal, and paint preparation. Additionally, in electronics, abrasives play a vital role in shaping and polishing delicate components like semiconductors and optical lenses, ensuring precision and quality in production processes.
