Products Densimix and E & B offers a line of iron oxide products, all processed from the our pure iron ores. Primary among them are:
In many cases, the general applications of these products overlap, with use choices depending upon the specifics of the customer needs. As lead and asbestos have fallen into disfavor over the past several years, Densimix products have found much wider application. Today, the majority of the Company's shipments of processed hematite serve the following industries: coatings, glass, plastics, chemical applications, oil field and filler/diversifiers. Denox is used as pigment in primer paints and
coatings. The hematite from which it is processed has a lamellar
crystalline structure that aligns itself in a position somewhat
parallel to the surface being coated, and in so doing provides
a barrier that is resistant to moisture and ultraviolet rays
(UV). Denox is often used in urethane and epoxy coatings,
as well as in zinc-rich primers. Denox is Densimix's finest
grade. It is used in the production of color concentrates in
such plastics as polypropylene, polyethylene, ABS and PVC. |
