Foundry Chemicals - Mold & Core Coatings
Mold & Core Coatings
Our coatings are designed for use through dipping, spraying, brushing, swabbing and flood coating. Our versatile range features water and solvent-based systems in powder, paste, slurry, ready-to-mix and ready-to-use forms. Our coating range is vast, efficient, and ensures optimal performance across various applications.
Our Aluminum Silicate-based refractory coatings exhibit low reactivity to metal oxide, making them an excellent choice. These coatings are gas permeable, highly recommended for G.I. / S.G. Iron castings. They are well-suited for Silicate-CO2 systems and various other organic binder systems.
Our graphite-based refractory coatings boast exceptional heat resistance and superior lubricating properties. These coatings not only reduce friction, enhancing mold release but also contribute to extending the lifespan of equipment. They play a key role in achieving smoother and dimensionally accurate casting surfaces. Recommended for G.I. and S.G. Iron castings, as well as light to heavy section iron castings and the manufacturing of ingot molds, these coatings are versatile. They are suitable for various systems, including Silicate-CO2, green sand, and other organic binder systems based on their grade.
Our magnesite-based refractory coatings create a robust and protective layer on molds and cores, effectively preventing mold-metal reactions. Specifically recommended for a wide range of light to heavy section manganese steel castings, these coatings excel in their suitability for molds and cores made of Silicate-CO2 systems and other organic sand binding systems.
Our zircon-based refractory coatings stand as a stalwart defence in high thermal environments. These coatings not only reduce metal penetration but also exhibit excellent erosion resistance, significantly enhancing the durability of molds and cores. An excellent choice for high-precision castings, they come highly recommended for light to heavy sections of G.I. and S.G. iron, steel, and alloy steel castings. Versatile in application, they are well-suited for molds and cores made from Silicate-CO2 systems and various organic sand binding systems.
Our mixed refractory coatings represent a fusion of refractory materials, delivering unparalleled thermal insulation, expansive coverage, minimal gas, and a seamlessly smooth casting peel. By harnessing the optimal attributes of various refractories, these coatings offer bespoke solutions across a spectrum of applications. Ideal for light to heavy sections of G.I. and S.G. iron, steel, and alloy steel castings, as well as non-ferrous applications, excel in molds and cores made from Silicate-CO2 systems and various organic sand binding systems.
