| Megasol®
S40 |
| Silica binder for
refractory fibers |
| Megasol®S40
is a silica binder developed for bonding and rigidizing of refractory
fiber shapes and boards. Megasol®S40’s
unique physical properties result in higher packing densities and stronger
bonds. Megasol®S40 has a higher
surface area than Megasol®S50
resulting in optimum performance at lower silica to starch ratios.
Replacing commonly used colloidal silica binders with Megasol®S40
yields 40% to 50% higher green and fired strength with better high
temperature performance characteristics. |

Megasol® S40 offers these
advantages
|
|
|
| Greater
Product Strength - |
40%-50% higher
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 2:1.. |
| Less
Shrinkage at High Temperatures - |
Larger particles
and low sodium content creates less sintering and less shrinkage at 2100oF
- 2300oF use temperatures. |
| Saves
Money - |
Higher green and
fired strength means you can formulate using less starch and silica,
lowering material costs. |
