Goway discusses the relationship between the modulus and solubility of water glass

Sodium water glass is commonly known as foam alkali, which is widely used in ceramic tile production and is also an important raw material for the production of ceramic water reducers. Next, Goway discusses the relationship between water glass and solubility.
Water glass is an ideal curing agent that is soluble in water, but as the modulus of water glass is larger, water glass is more difficult to dissolve in water. If we introduce the relationship between modulus and solubility according to mathematical thinking, it can be said that the modulus of water glass is inversely proportional to solubility. The water glass on the market is generally divided into two categories: one is sodium water glass, and the other is potassium water glass. Although the performance of the two water glasses is the same, the scope of application is very different.

1. How to test the modulus of water glass
Want to test the modulus of water glass can be measured by sampling survey, but this kind of measurement requires a large measurement base to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results. If there are special test strips or test tools, it is best to use test strips or tools. Because there is a certain contingency in sampling surveys, sometimes the measurement results may have certain errors. If you need to use water glass in the building, you must use precision instruments for measurement.
2. What are the main ingredients of water glass
In addition to the density, the main component of the water glass also affects the modulus. Water glass is generally made of quartz powder and soda ash. In the process of making, it needs to go through a high temperature of 1300 degrees to produce water glass. At this time, the factory will generally prepare different concentrations of water glass according to the needs of customers.

Is a Dilatant Fluid Deflocculated or Flocculated?
A dilatant fluid—also called a shear-thickening fluid—is typically a deflocculated suspension.
As shear stress increases, particles crowd and temporarily form clusters, causing viscosity to rise. This reversible process distinguishes it from flocculated systems, which are thick even at rest.
