Description

Soda Ash, also known as Sodium Carbonate, provides an important function as a deflocculant in casting slips. 

This substance adds a small amount of thixotropy while increasing fluidity, allowing for better control over the rheological properties of the slip.

Thixotropy is how quickly the particles clump back together. This is important to know when creating and adjusting casting slips in order to control rheological properties (the fluidity basically)

Understanding the relationship between deflocculants and thixotropy is crucial when creating and adjusting casting slips for optimal results.

Keep stirring and testing until you have the perfect level of viscosity.

Available in 5kg bags.
