Application and advantages of lithium silicate in coatings
2023-12-25 10:471. Advantages of lithium silicate
Lithium silicate is a multifunctional coating additive that offers the following benefits:
1. Enhance adhesion: Lithium silicate can enhance the adhesion between the paint and the substrate, making the paint adhere more firmly to the surface of the substrate.
2. Improve hardness and wear resistance: Lithium silicate can increase the hardness and wear resistance of the coating, making the coating more durable.
3. Improve the gloss: Lithium silicate can improve the gloss of the coating, making the coating surface smoother and brighter.
4. UV resistance: Lithium silicate can improve the UV resistance of the paint, allowing the paint to maintain its color even after being exposed to sunlight for a long time.
5. Anti-corrosion, anti-rust and anti-bacterial: lithium metasilicate can also play anti-corrosion, anti-rust and anti-bacterial effects, which can extend the service life of the paint.
2. Application of lithium silicate in different coatings
1. Application in water-based coatings: lithium metasilicate can be used well with water-based coatings to improve the wear resistance, hardness, adhesion and other properties of water-based coatings.
2. Application in industrial coatings: Lithium silicate can be used well with various industrial coatings to improve the gloss and UV resistance of the coating.
3. Application in car paint: Lithium silicate can be used in car paint to improve gloss, anti-corrosion and anti-rust.
4. Application in wood coatings: Lithium silicate can enhance hardness, wear resistance and gloss in wood coatings.
