Due to the insulating properties, high temperature resistance and the ability to bind undesirable substances our expanded vermiculite has an important role in industry and metallurgy. The vermiculite is used to make the insulating powders for the metallurgy of iron, zinc, lead and other metals. Our product is widely use as a loose insulation material in foundries and in the production of high temperature lubricants/ cums.
The Vermiculite is used in molds and ingot molds where covers the surface and forms an insulating layer - greatly reduces heat loss and increases the residence time of the liquid state of metal, so You get a clean, homogeneous product, without separation zones.
In the steel industry vermiculite boards are used to lay the bottom of the ladle for spilling steel and furnaces. Vermiculite thermal insulation products can be used in insulation units and devices operating at temperatures between 900 ° and 1200 ° C.
