Characteristics of PS Balls

PS Ball is a superior abrasive with the following outstanding properties:

Environmentally friendly and non toxic
Stable Spinel molecular structure formed by super cooling molten slag in steel making process
High strength and low abrasive rate
High density and very low friability
Very safe composition
High compressive strength and hardness
Durable , can be collected and reused
Harder than copper and sand
High coefficient of friction and resistant to slippage
It has been proven to have higher efficiency than river sand for pollution removal
Under normal conditions, it generates fewer dust exhaust than copper slag and garnet

Applications

Know how the product can be used

PS ball is completely dust-free, therefore it can be used for surface preparation, rust removal, and ship building applications, unlike mineral abrasives like garnet. It is frequently employed in ship maintenance as well.
PS Balls find applications in oil storage tanks, bridge construction work, in construction of heavy steel structures, in oil rig platforms, and so on; mainly for purposes of cleaning and surface preparation and are used for cleaning welded areas in storage tanks before repainting.
It can be used as an abrasive material, to clean material surfaces and prepare them for painting.
The typical characteristics make PS balls perfect for use in blast cleaning applications, as they provide the right atomizing of materials with respect to size, density, hardness and durability.
Due to its high bulk specific gravity of 2.42 Kg/l, precious slag balls are widely used as a counter balance in many applications.
PS ball is also used as a filtration medium as it is non-water absorbent and is very durable.
Because of its nonslip properties, PS Balls can be used as covering on the road or as paving for concrete and asphalt roads. It adheres effectively with asphalt or concrete, and can therefore be used as efficient repair or reinforcement material for various purposes.
