Abstract
A stainless blasting medium is provided including blasting medium elements containing an austenitic chromium-manganese steel, the blasting medium comprising the austenitic chromium-manganese steel-containing blasting medium elements in a range of ≥90 wt.-% to ≤100 wt.-% relative to the total weight of the stainless blasting medium. The following further relates to the use of the stainless blasting medium for blasting surfaces, metal and non-metal surfaces, such as workpieces, in particular stainless workpieces.
Claims19
A stainless blasting medium comprising blasting medium elements comprising an austenitic chromium-manganese steel, wherein said blasting medium comprises said blasting medium elements comprising an austenitic chromium-manganese steel in a range from ≥90 wt.-% to ≤100 wt.-%, based on the total weight of said stainless blasting medium, wherein the blasting medium in use has an Almen intensity at a saturation point, measured at an average equivalent diameter D50 measured according to DIN 66165-2:2016-08 in a range of ≤0.3 mm to ≥0.01 mm by means of an Almen strip N according to SAE J445 of ≥0.20 mm;
- wherein the blasting medium has a lifetime, measured at the average equivalent diameter D50, measured according to DIN 66165-2:2016-08, in a range from ≤0.3 mm to ≥0.01 mm by means of a lifetime test according to SAE J 445 5.3 up to an accumulated loss of 100%, of ≥25,000 cycles.
