Product category: Binders for investment casting
Fused Silica
Fused silica is high purity quartz sand that has been melted to form glass.
High volume stability, low volumetric expansion and high purity make fused silica a very useful and versatile material for refractory applications, whether in aluminum launders or other highly cyclical applications.
Our fused silica, Teco-Sil® has an extremely low thermal expansion coefficient, consistent chemistry and carefully controlled particle size distribution. Teco-Sil products are specially engineered grains and powders designed for use in foundry, refractory, investment casting and other special applications.
Teco-Sil is produced at Imerys Greeneville fusion plant in Tennessee, USA.
Product category: Binders for investment casting
