LUDOX® TMA is based on the colloidal silica used in the preparation of “hydrid” colloidal silica – ethyl silicate binders for precision investment casting. It may also be used in applications in which sodium or alkaline components are undesirable, such as catalysts or in formulations containing polar organic solvents. LUDOX® TMA displays a low sodium levels, board pH stability from about pH 4 to 10 & slighty acid to neutral pH LUDOX® TMA is recommeded to use in precision investment casting and ceramic materials used in refractory applications. Please see the specification sheet below and for further details contact our local sales representative today.

CATASOL™ H720M is designed to use for faster curing, cold or very basic sand conditions, this is a stronger catalysts that are especially useful in winter months or early mornings when cold boxes prevent acceptable strip times being obtained. CATASOL™ H720M offers a low viscosity XSA, strong XSA for extreme cold situations. CATASOL™ H720M is a wise environmental / health and safety choice for foundries that can avoid using a Benzene based catalyst.

VINKOCIDE™ KTL is based on 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one (BIT) with Methylisothiazolinone (MIT). ideal for use in aqueous and water miscible systems. Broad antimicrobial spectrum against bacteria, fungi and yeasts. Free from formaldehyde, formaldehyde releasers. Excellent chemical stability phenolics or heavy metals, non-volatile, excellent long-term efficacy, good compatibility with other raw materials.
