Coal slag also known as boiler slag is a recycled product from coal burning plants that melts during the combustion process at temperatures exceeding 2 000 degrees Fahrenheit This byproduct forms unique angular shapes making it an effective abrasive for cleaning and maintenance purposes Coal slag is a glass matrix alumina silicate produced
Coal slag also known as boiler slag is a recycled product produced by coal burning plants When coal is fired at over 2500 degrees it melts and produces a by product called slag When cooled through a press slag becomes a popular blast abrasive due to its cheap silica free and effective properties
