| Megasol®
S50 |
| Silica binder for
refractory fibers |
| Megasol®S50
is the optimal colloidal silica for bonding and rigidizing of refractory
fiber shapes and boards. Megasol®S50’s
unique physical properties result in higher packing densities and stronger
bonds. With approximately one third the surface area of commonly used
binders, Megasol®S50 requires less
cationic starch to floc and yields higher silica content boards and shapes
with better high temperature performance characteristics. |

Megasol® S50
offers these advantages
|
|
|
| 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. |
