Properties
Liquid sodium silicate is a clear, viscous aqueous solution available in multiple grades with varying modulus and concentration. It has excellent binding, adhesive, and film-forming properties and is one of the most versatile industrial chemicals.
Applications
- Metal repair: protective coatings on mufflers and exhaust systems
- Automotive engine head sealants operating at high temperature
- Aquaculture: substrate for algae growth in aquatic farming
- Food preservation: extends egg shelf life up to 9 months
- Wood treatment: insect resistance and flame retardancy
- Construction: faster drying, increased strength, water/acid/wear resistance
- Mining and tunneling: grouting, waterproofing, leak plugging, ore dressing
- Wastewater treatment: coagulant for contaminant precipitation
- Textiles: detergent auxiliaries and dyeing additives
