GOWAY Ceramic Body Binder — Enhance Green Strength, Reduce Breakage & Warpage
🏗️ GOWAY Ceramic Body Binder · Product Technical Manual
Ceramic Body Binder is a high-performance additive specifically designed to increase the strength of ceramic bodies. Through bridging, bonding, and filling mechanisms, it forms strong interparticle bonds between ceramic particles, significantly improving the strength of both granulated powder and finished green bodies, while reducing quality issues such as breakage, warpage, and lamination at various stages of production.
• Reduces high-quality clay usage — maintains body strength while reducing clay content
• No negative impact on slurry flow — slurry flow time increases by 5–10 seconds, still within good range
• Dry strength improvement — dry strength increases by 10%–30%
• Appearance: White powder / Brown powder
• Packaging: 25 kg/bag
GOWAY Ceramic Body Binders are divided into two series, designed for different body formulations and production processes: Inorganic Mineral Series (FG-302 / FG-303) and Organic Polymer Series (FG-ZM010 / FG-ZM01A). The two series can be used individually or in combination for optimal strengthening results.
- Main Composition: Aluminosilicate mineral system, SiO₂ 60-70%, Al₂O₃ 13-16%
- Mechanism: Filling and bridging effects via mineral particles, increasing mechanical interlocking
- Applications: Standard ceramic bodies, refractories, bricks, tiles
- Features: Cost-effective, good compatibility with bodies, no effect on fired color
- Main Composition: Organic polymer active ingredients, content 90-98%
- Mechanism: Bridging and bonding via polymer chains, forming flexible connections between particles
- Applications: High-demand bodies, thin slabs, large-format tiles, special-shaped parts
- Features: Significant strengthening effect, extremely low dosage (0.1%-0.2%), up to 30% dry strength improvement
🪨 Inorganic Mineral Series — Chemical Composition (%)
| Code | SiO₂ | Al₂O₃ | Fe₂O₃ | Na₂O | CaO | MgO | K₂O | L.O.I |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FG-302 | 60-65 | 13-15 | 1-2 | 1-2 | 1-2 | 2-3 | 1-2 | 7-8 |
| FG-303 | 65-70 | 14-16 | 1-2 | 1-2 | 1-2 | 2-3 | 1-2 | 6-7 |
🧬 Organic Polymer Series — Active Content (%)
| Code | Active Ingredient | Main Inorganic Salt By-product | Unreacted Monomer / Oligomer | Residual Raw Materials & Moisture | L.O.I |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FG-ZM010 | 90-95% | 5-8% | <2% | Trace | 50-55 |
| FG-ZM01A | 95-98% | 3-8% | <2% | Trace | 50-55 |
• Granulation: Increases cohesion of powder particles, reducing breakage and fines generation
• Pressing: Improves green strength, reducing breakage during demolding and handling
• Drying: Reduces shrinkage stress from moisture evaporation, effectively preventing warpage and lamination
• Pre-firing handling: Enhances breakage resistance during glazing, grinding, cutting, and other processes
| Application Scenario | Recommended Product | Recommended Dosage | Selection Rationale |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Ceramic Body | FG-302 | 0.1% – 0.2% | Cost-effective, good compatibility with bodies |
| High-demand Body / Thin Slabs | FG-303 | 0.1% – 0.2% | Higher SiO₂ content, superior strengthening effect |
| Premium Large-format Tiles | FG-ZM010 | 0.1% – 0.15% | 90-95% active content, extremely low dosage, significant effect |
| Special-shaped / Fine Ceramics | FG-ZM01A | 0.08% – 0.15% | 95-98% ultra-high activity, strongest strengthening effect |
| Refractory Materials | FG-302 / FG-303 | 0.15% – 0.25% | Inorganic mineral series offer better high-temperature performance |
• Recommended dosage: 0.1%–0.2% (based on dry material weight)
• Optimal dosage should be determined through laboratory trials, as different body formulations vary
• Slurry flow time increases by 5–10 seconds, still within good flow range
• Can be used in combination with deflocculants — they work synergistically without interference
• Dry strength improvement: 10%–30%, depending on formulation and process
- Reduces high-quality clay usage — lowers cost
- No impact on slurry flow — good fluidity
- Dry strength increase 10-30% — reduces breakage
- Reduces warpage & lamination — improves yield
- Inorganic Series — FG-302 / FG-303
- Organic Series — FG-ZM010 / FG-ZM01A
- Recommended Dosage — 0.1% ~ 0.2%
- Packaging — 25 kg/bag
