Greater Product Strength
Double the dried and fired strengths than other commonly used colloidal
silica binders.
Flexibility in Formulation
Creates stronger boards than other sols at silica to starch rations
of 1:1 through 4:1.
Lower or No Smoke Products
You can use as little as 2% starch and still get excellent floccing
and product strength resulting in little or no smoking at elevated
use temperatures.
Less Shrinkage at High Temperatures
Larger particles and low sodium content creates less sintering and
less shrinkage at 2100 - 2300oF use temperatures.
Better Rigidizing
Larger silica particles soak in farther and faster for greater hardness
throughout.
Saves Money
Higher green and fired strength means you can formulate using less
starch and silica, lowering material costs.
