Binders
Binders are a cornerstone of REMET’s existence.
REMET works closely with its customers to help select the binder
that will optimize their process. Factors such as adhesion to the
wax pattern, slurry stability, required green, hot and fired strength,
processing speed and an ability to operate under the foundry’s
environmental conditions, whether tightly controlled or uncontrolled,
are all considered to give our customers the best system to meet
or exceed their needs. Available binders include families of Enhanced
REMASOL® ADBOND® Binders as well as
standard REMASOL® Colloidal Silica Binders.
- World-Class Technical Support
- State-of-the-Art R&D Laboratories
- Improved Green Strength and Elasticity
- Unique Solutions to Reduce Operating Costs
- Coat reduction plus faster processing speed yield:
reduced costs, improved customer responsiveness, reduced work in
process and increased profitability.
