Dispersant
DESCRIPTION
It is a special dispersant designed to deflocculate clay and clay based minerals suspension and also disperses pigments in glazes. Commonly used silicates and phosphates though help in dispersion; amount required is more and hence adds undesirable alkali in the system. Further it does not give required viscosity in high slip density.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
It gets adsorbed to the surface of the colloidal particles and creates electrostatic repulsion as well as steric hindrance and stabilizes the system.
PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
DIRECTION FOR USE
During charging of Raw materials add SDM36 in required quantity to get desired flow in the slip without altering the density of the slip.
RECOMMENDED DOSAGE
Trials should be conducted to determine the optimum requirement of SDM36 in ceramic slurry
