Sodium Silicate

Sodium Silicate is frequently employed as a deflocculant during slip preparation. Its function is to neutralize the charges present on the particles within the slip, thereby promoting uniform suspension and thinning.

• Deflocculant: Sodium Silicate is widely used to deflocculate slips in ceramic applications, ensuring optimal particle suspension and thinning.

• Enhanced Suspension: By promoting uniform suspension, Sodium Silicate helps maintain consistent viscosity and flow characteristics in ceramic slips.

• Improved Workability: Incorporating Sodium Silicate in slip preparation enhances workability, making it easier to cast, mold, or apply the slip onto ceramic surfaces.
