Industrial Vermiculite #3 & #4
Our thermally expanded Industrial Vermiculite #3 & #4 have a multitude of uses as a specialty raw material, thanks to the unique combination properties, like low bulk density, heat- and fire-resistance, superior absorbency, and chemical inertness. Its uses include:
Insulating aggregate
- Lightweight refractory brick and castables
- U.L. rated doors, safes, and cabinets
- Ladle insulation
- Metallurgical processing
General purpose filler
- Industrial composites
- Friction materials
- Lightweight concrete
Carrier and bulking agent
- Lightweight fertilizers
- Animal feed
Absorbent
- Chemical packaging
- Spill clean-up
- Cushioning fragile items
Industrial Vermiculite is a better choice than common chemical carriers.
Our Industrial Vermiculite is distinguished from most common chemical carriers because of its low bulk density and high surface area. Vermiculite has a unique structure which enables absorption interstitially—between layers—as well as on the surface of the particle.
