Advanced Liquid Lithium Silicate Solution: Lithium Silicate Formula And Unveiling Superior Performance for Optimal Industrial Use
Lithium silicate, also known as lithium water glass, is an odorless, transparent or semi transparent weakly alkaline liquid with a pH value between 11-12. The relative density and viscosity of the product vary with the product model, with a relative density between 1.16 and 1.20 (20 ℃).
Liquid lithium silicate is soluble in water and alkaline solution, insoluble in alcohol and organic solvent, and can dissociate from gel by interaction with acid. It has self drying properties, and after the evaporation of water in the solution, it can generate a dry film that is insoluble in water and has water irreversibility.
Our company adopts innovative production processes and produces lithium silicate with diverse specifications, colorless and transparent, stable properties, and superior quality. The impurity ion content is extremely low, and the product quality is excellent. Can produce different specifications of products with any modulus between 2.9-4.9 and a concentration of 22-23%, or according to customer need.
Appearance and Packaging
This is a colorless transparent liquid.
It is usually packaged in ICB barrels or 200-liter plastic barrels.
The core advantages and features of liquid lithium silicate
1.Lithium silicate has excellent surface properties (for coatings & concrete):
Lithium silicate can react to form a dense and stable silicon dioxide network structure. It provides extremely high surface hardness, wear resistance and anti-friability, and the finished product does not have alkali precipitation, has a pure and beautiful appearance, and has an extremely long lifespan.
2.Lithium silicate exhibits outstanding weather resistance and temperature resistance:
The lithium-silicon bonds have high strength and the structure is stable. It can withstand long-term exposure to ultraviolet rays, wind and rain, as well as high and low temperature cycles (-50°C to +1000°C), making it an ideal protective material for outdoor facilities and high-temperature equipment.
3.Lithium silicate has excellent penetration and hardening capabilities (for concrete):
Small lithium ions can penetrate quickly and deeply. They react more completely with calcium hydroxide in the concrete, resulting in a more uniform and thorough hardening effect, especially suitable for low-grade or dense concrete.
4.Lithium silicate boasts excellent environmental friendliness and safety:
It is a water-based inorganic system with zero VOC emissions and non-flammability. It is absolutely safe during production, construction and use, and has no environmental pollution. It complies with the most stringent environmental protection regulations.
5.Lithium silicate exhibits extensive compatibility and versatility:
Lithium silicate has good compatibility with zinc powder, inorganic pigments, and various fillers. It can be used as the basic binder for a variety of high-performance composite materials and has wide application fields.
Application scenarios of liquid lithium silicate densifier
| Inorganic zinc-rich primer | As a binder, it provides top-level long-term cathodic protection for ships, bridges, offshore platforms, etc. |
| Inorganic anti-corrosion topcoat & high-temperature resistant coating | Used for chimneys, reaction vats, engines, etc. |
| Lithium-based concrete sealing and curing agent | Ideal for high-end industrial floors, commercial floors, and old floor renovations, providing unparalleled hardening effect and aesthetic appeal. |
| New Energy and Electronics Field | The silicon-carbon composite binder used for preparing lithium batteries can enhance the performance of the batteries. |
| Special adhesive | High-temperature resistant adhesive, casting sand core adhesive. |
Guide for the Use of liquid lithium silicate
1.In inorganic zinc-rich coatings: As the base material, it is mixed with ultrafine zinc powder and additives in a specific ratio. The curing process usually requires spraying a curing agent or relying on air humidity.
2.During the concrete sealing and curing process: Spray directly onto the polished and cleaned concrete surface, keep it moist, then clean and polish it.
3.Notes:
It should be stored sealed to prevent gelation caused by absorption of CO₂.
This product is alkaline. Protective equipment must be worn during operation.
