About Binder Pitch
Binder Pitch is made by mixing thermal tar made from petroleum-based aromatic mineral oil with finely divided calcined premium coke. The process of hydrotreating, thermally cracking, and vacuum distilling aromatic mineral oil yields the petroleum aromatic mineral oil thermal tar. It is exceptional in that it has great compatibility with carbonaceous aggregates of various origins and nature, acting as an enhanced binder to produce superior grades of electrodes either in situ or in the soderberg type.
Superior Quality for Industrial ApplicationsBinder Pitch is carefully formulated with anthracite coal, ensuring superior performance in industrial environments like foundries and metallurgy. Its high purity and consistent granular size (0-8 mm) allow for excellent binding properties, contributing to efficient casting and metal processing operations. The product's low phosphorus and ash content further improve the final output's quality.
Safe and Convenient PackagingPacked in robust plastic bags, each containing 50 kg of powder, our Binder Pitch is easy to store and transport. The packaging is designed to maintain the product's integrity, ensuring it remains dry and free from contaminants until use in your facility.
FAQ's of Binder Pitch:
Q: How should Binder Pitch be used in foundry and metallurgy applications?
A: Binder Pitch is ideal as a binder or additive in foundry sand mixtures and metallurgy processes, enhancing mold strength and thermal stability. It should be blended according to your process specifications to achieve the desired binding and structural properties during casting or sintering.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using high purity, anthracite-based Binder Pitch?
A: With high fixed carbon and low moisture, sulphur, and phosphorus contents, this binder ensures cleaner and more efficient industrial processes. It reduces impurities in the final metal product, improves calorific value for energy efficiency, and delivers reliable performance for high-quality casting outcomes.
Q: Where is Binder Pitch typically stored for optimal preservation?
A: Store Binder Pitch in a dry place, inside its original plastic bag packaging. Keeping the product away from moisture and contaminants ensures its powder consistency and purity are maintained until use.
Q: When is it appropriate to use Binder Pitch during production?
A: Binder Pitch should be incorporated during the initial stages of sand or material preparation. Mixing it with other foundry or metallurgy components before heating or molding ensures proper binding and performance throughout the process.
Q: What safety considerations are necessary when handling Binder Pitch?
A: Although Binder Pitch is odorless and non-toxic, standard safety practices should be observed. Use protective gloves and masks to avoid inhalation of fine powder or skin contact, and always handle it in a well-ventilated area.
Q: How is the manufacturing process of Binder Pitch carried out before packaging?
A: High-quality anthracite coal is carefully processed, pulverized, and screened to create a uniform powder. The product is then tested for purity, moisture, and granulometry before being hygienically packaged in durable plastic bags for distribution.
