100micron Ceramic Microsphere/Cenospheres for Paint Coatings
Alumino-silicate Cenospheres/Hollow Ceramic Microspheres for Paint Coatings
Cenosphere are light weight,inert,hollow speres of Silica and Alumina filled with gas which naturally occurs in the combustion of coal during the generation of electric power.The properties are same as manufactured sphered products.Thus it is also called as Glass Beads,Hollow Ceramic Sphere or Microspheres.
Size range from 20 to 500 microns with an average compressive strength of 3000+psi..
Colors range from white to light gray.
Main Advantages of Using Cenosphere for Paint and Coatings:
Spherical Shape Improved Flow and Leveling Hardness,Abrasion and burnish resistance
Good Thermal Insulation Corrosion resistance Chemical Resistance
Cost Reduction Dispersing Reduced Resin Demand Reduced Cost and VOC
