Iron Silicate. Also known as Fayalite, the product is well-valued by the professionals. The professionals from AURUBIS will let us know more about its qualities and wide range of applicability at their stand.
“This is a by-product obtained as a result of a complex metallurgical process in the Aurubis Bulgaria plant in Pirdop. The properties of iron silicate determine its compatibility with a variety of materials such as limestone, clay, clinker, soils, cement, sand, gravel, bitumen, polymers, epoxides and other construction chemistry materials “, commented from the company.
Areas of application:
Iron Silicate is a raw material used in many construction fields, including:
– Transport concrete and concrete elements
– Ceramic products (bricks and clinker tiles)
– Asphalt Mixtures
– Cement-based dry mixes (masonry mortars, adhesive compositions, putties, self-leveling compositions)
– Industrial coatings based on different polymers and epoxides
– Alkaline-activated binders – “The cement of the future”
Encouraging circular economy
The application of iron silicate leads to the production of building materials with a lower environmental footprint and reduces the use of natural raw materials. The use of the product encourages the circular economy. Its large-scale application helps to significantly increase the use of by-products in our country. The diverse fields of application of the material prove its versatility and lead to an improvement of the properties of the finished products in which it is used.
The professionals from AURUBIS will present to us the qualities and applications of Iron Silicate in Hall 3, Stand C 3.
