Keeping it all together

There are few places where precision, strength, safety and reliability are more important than in a foundry. Colloidal silica is one of the most important products used in foundry operations.

The foundry sector uses more colloidal silica than practically any other industry in the world, and has done for a long time. Colloidal silica's main function at the foundry is as a binder used in:

· Refractory Fiber Bonding (RFB)
