Chemical Industries
The multifunctionality of Argolitec allows the use in a broad range of
- cement bonded
- dispersion bonded
systems such as glues, fillers and grouting , cold-hardening paints etc..
The distinctive surface reactivity and the typical properties of a (non-swellable) layer-silicate allow an improved functionality with regard to
- thermal shock resistance (resistance against freeze – dew alteration)
- ageing resistance
- resistance against chemical affect / corrosion / dirt
- mechanical properties
- durability and density of surfaces
- scratch resistance
- tribology
- barrier properties
- against chemicals
- gases and liquids (improvement of water tightness)
- UV protection
- the use as catalytic carrier (for additional functional additives)
as well as an improved processability and stabilization:
- adjustable as hydrophobic and hydrophilic
- regulation of rheology,
- bonding and setting
- reduction of shrinkage
- improvement of flow
- adjustment of porosity
- dispersable as a suspension
