Sodium Silicate
Sodium silicate in powder and liquid (oil) grades — a binder for mortars, adhesives and refractory compounds, manufactured and supplied by RK Rubber, Ahmedabad.
Sodium silicate is an inorganic binder used across mortars, adhesives, refractory compounds, foundry work and construction chemicals. We manufacture it in both powder and liquid (oil) grades.
Sodium silicate powder is free-flowing and suited to dry-mix applications, while the liquid grade is used directly as a binder in wet processes or where an already-dissolved silicate is more practical to handle.
Grades & Variants
Applications
- Binder in acid-resistant mortars and cements
- Foundry sand-binder applications
- Detergent and construction-chemical formulation
- Refractory and adhesive compound manufacturing
Chemical & Temperature Resistance
Sodium silicate is valued as an inorganic binder for its bonding strength and heat tolerance in cured mortar and cement systems. Exact grade (modulus/concentration) should be matched to your process — our team can help you select the right grade.
Packaging & Quantities
Powder is supplied in standard bag quantities; liquid (oil) grade is supplied in drums. Confirm exact packaging, concentration and minimum order quantity with our sales team.
Storage & Handling
- Store powder grade in a dry area, sealed against moisture ingress
- Store liquid (oil) grade in sealed drums away from extreme temperatures
- Follow standard industrial chemical handling practice — gloves and eye protection recommended when handling concentrate
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use powder or liquid sodium silicate?
Powder suits dry-mix mortar and cement applications where you want to control water addition on-site. Liquid (oil) grade suits processes that already work with a wet mix, such as foundry binders or certain adhesive formulations. We can help you choose based on your process.
