Sodium Silicate 140s - 500ml for Casting Slips
Sodium Silicate 140s - 500ml is a ceramic deflocculant used in the preparation of casting slips for pottery studios, ceramic workshops and slip casting departments. Supplied as a concentrated solution, it helps adjust slip fluidity for mould pouring and is typically used in earthenware slips.
The density of sodium silicate is measured in degrees Twaddell, often written as TW, with higher figures indicating a denser and more viscous liquid. This 140s sodium silicate is a useful slip casting material for studios preparing or adjusting ceramic casting slip as part of regular production, education or workshop use.
