Wesil CS | |
Complete binder system for vacuum forming fibers | |
Wesil CS is a complete refractory fiber floccing and bonding system that replaces both colloidal silica and starch, saving the extra steps of dissolving and/or cooking the starch separately. It contains a cationic cold-water swelling corn starch blended at an optimum ratio with our proprietary aluminosilicate in a dry binder. Buffers are added to maintain proper pH for maximum strength products and reduced bacteria growth for better slurry life. | |
|
|
Significantly Reduced Costs — | Typically reduces
formula costs 30-40% below colloidal silica/starch systems. |
No More Cooking Starch — | Contains pre-gelled
cationic starch, eliminating time-consuming extra steps. |
Less Smoke and Whiter Color — | Lower organic content
for purer color and reduced off-gassing. |
Better Fired Strength — | More inorganic
binder creates better fired strength. |
More Uniform Product — | Master batching
creates more consistent binder ratios and enhanced product integrity. |
No Cristobalite — | Completely cristobalite-free at use temperature eliminating a common source of thermal shrinkage
problems and health related concerns. |
