Ceramics

Tylose cellulose ethers are used by the ceramic industry in various applications such as ceramic and powder metallurgical extrusion mixes as rheology modification and water retention additives.

Ceramics

Furthermore, the high binding power of Tylose plays an important role in spray drying and agglomeration granuling and the related powder pressing processes. Tylose is compatible with most other additives such as dispersants, plasticisers and surfactants. It is easily integrable into existing formulations, and it shows an excellent debinding behaviour.

Filter applications by:

    Extrusion

    Tylose is an indispensable additive for the plastification of ceramic extrusion mixes, especially for the extrusion of technical ceramics, used in the automotive and chemical industry. Typical examples are honeycomb catalyst substrates and particle filters for exhaust gas after-treatment applications. Tylose shows fast hydration and swelling and unfolds its plastification and water retention effects in a highly efficient way. With the combination of high thermal stability, high green strength and low fibre content, Tylose enables high extrusion rates, even with ultra-thin wall substrates. In the drying process Tylose prevents cracks via its binding effect, additionally supported by its thermal gelation capabilities.

    Engobes and glazes

    The rheology modifying effects of Tylose prevent sedimentation of solids as well as supporting good flowability of the glazing slips, ensuring a uniform coating of ceramic bodies. In a dry state, Tylose strengthens the capability of the glaze film to bind to the ceramic surface, making it smooth and stable.

    Granuling and powder pressing

    Tylose prevents sedimentation in spray drying slips and acts as rheology modifier. It contributes to an advantageous particle size distribution of the dried granules and fast filling of pressing moulds. In combination with plasticising and other additives, it provides high green strength and shows excellent debinding behaviour.
