Silicon carbide micropowder for paint filler

Green silicon carbide micropowder and black silicon carbide micropowder are both good paint filler for paint and coating. They have good insulation properties, long service life and low production cost, so they are widely used. In fact, silicon carbide micropowder also plays a certain role in paint coatings. So what are the uses of silicon carbide micropowder in coatings? Gabe silicon carbide manufacturer will give you a brief introduction in detail.

The use of silicon carbide micropowder in paints and coatings:

1. Low resin dosage/high potential for adding: Because in any shape, the spherical shape has a specific surface area, and the demand for resin is small. Particle packing is also improved. The broad particle size distribution of the silicon carbide micropowder enables small microspheres to fill the voids between the large microspheres. The result: high loadings, high solids, lower VOCs and reduced usage of other ingredients.

2. Low viscosity/improved flowability: Unlike irregularly shaped particles, silicon carbide micropowders roll easily between each other. This makes the system using silicon carbide micropowder have lower viscosity and better fluidity. Furthermore, the sprayability of the system is also improved.

Silicon carbide micropowder can be used in coatings, commonly used in: blending paints, primers, anti-rust paints, anti-corrosion paints, road paints, square paints, marine paints and other paints and coatings, which can reduce the amount of resin and dispersant in paints and coatings. Usage amount. It can not only play the role of filling and compatibilizing, thickening and matting, but also improve paint fineness, leveling performance, paint film hardness, and arc resistance insulation.

In the coating industry, the silicon carbide micropowder of Jiabei silicon carbide powder has the characteristics of fine particle size, high hardness, good suspension and dispersion, low oil absorption, and high resistivity. Silicon carbide micropowder helps to improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance, insulation and high temperature resistance of coatings.
