DESCRIPTION:
A fine, white powder, powdery instant potassium silicate has the same ratio as liquid silicates.
When dissolved, it forms a hazy, colorless colloidal solution.
Application:
Used in Arc Welding Electrode,Acid Resistant Cement, Refractory Cement,Oil Exploration,
Agriculture,Adhesives.
Welding Electrode:
Noble Potassium Silicate is used as a binder in Arc Welding Electrodes A Welding electrodes coating
consists of various minerals and metal powders together with Potassium Silicate, which then extruded
into the electrode. Noble Potassium Silicate provides a smooth extrusion and act as a binder. Noble
Potassium Silicate yield a smoothness quite burning Arc and controls the Arc spattering and these all things
are most important in a good quality welding electrode.
Acid Resistant Cements:
Acid resistant bricks work and lining are required in many industrial process. The acid resistant bricks are
readily available and suitable cement are selected. Noble Potassium Silicate is an extremely useful binder for
their cements, as the action of acid and Potassium Silicate is to produce free silica which is resistant to all acids
except hydrofluoric Acid & minimise porosity.
Refractory Cement:
The properties of Potassium Silicate are very suitable for production of high temperature cements. Potassium
Silicate soften & flow at a higher temperature then Sodium Silicate. Potassium Silicate is used in various high
temperature binders.
Protective & Decorative Coatings:
Potassium Silicate is an excellent vehicle for pigments, which are applied to stone concrete, Stucco bricks &
metal surfaces. Potassium Silicate films do not form carbonates on exposure to the atmosphere, therefore,
the films of Potassium Silicate remains free from frosty bloom.
