Fiber Chemicals

Description

Leveraging the skills of our qualified team of professionals, we are instrumental in offering a wide range of Fiber Chemicals.

Other Details:
Cellulose Fibre is manufactured from recycled cellulose which contains minimum of 75% cellulose as its raw material base. Again, this is processed in to grey fibres for use in variety of building and industrial application. These fibres can also be formulated to meet the specific needs of customer in any respect from actual particle size distribution to bag size and weight. This grey fibre provides a cost-effective alternative to those industries which require reliable filler without the expense of pure alpha cellulose. In applications ranging from roofing products to pavement patching Cellulose Fibres provide variety of benefits and properties. Cellulose fibre is also extensively used in refractory castables, Basic spraying mass, Gunning and also in shotcreting.
Cellulose fibres are environment friendly products, gained from replenishable raw materials. Among other things, they are used as thickeners, for fibre reinforcement, as an absorbent and diluent or as a carrier and filler in most manifold application fields.
Properties :
§ Insoluble in water and organic solvents
§ Resistant to dilute acids and alkalis
§ Average dosage 0.3% to 10% and moisture content < 8%
§ Random fibre mix produces better matrix building

Benefits :
§ Three dimensional cross linking effect adds stability & Strong thickening efficacy
§ Thixotropic Control and Cracking Inhibitor
§ Shrinkage Control, Setting Time Control
§ Increase Volumetric Coverage
§ Longer open time and better adhesive strength
§ Increased green strength
§ The forming of cracks is interrupted. (The mechanical energy arising with the forming of cracks is degraded.)

Applications :

§ Roof coatings and Protective Coatings
§ Athletic Surface Coating
§ Crack fillers and sealers & different building products
§ Friction and gasket materials
§ Tundish refractory application also in Rubber and Plastic
