Sodium Silicate, Powder, Low Alkaline (SSG)
DOWNLOAD SPECIFICATIONSSodium Silicate (Water Glass) is a fine, white powder with a SiO2 to Na2O ratio of 3.22, the same as SSO and SSN liquid sodium silicates. When dissolved, it forms a hazy, colorless colloidal solution. SSG sodium silicate is used in specialized refractory compounds and acid-resistant cements. It functions as a binder for powdered materials intended for use in high-temperature and/or acid-resistant cements and other applications.
