Bone Ash Uses
Application of Bone Ash to a surface exposed to molten non-ferrous metals provides a consistent barrier against attack by the molten metals. This property provides the means for the protective barrier.
1
Superior Protection
Murlin Chemical Aluminum Grade Natural Bone Ash is not wetted by molten non-ferrous metals. It therefore provides superior protection to surfaces exposed to molten metals such as molds or refractories in transfer troughs, filter boxes and other vessels. In many industries, natural bone ash has been credited with doubling the working life of molds and refractories-
offering significant economic advantages.
2
Superior Castings
Murlin Bone Ash is a pure natural product, manufactured under strictly controlled conditions. Unlike other dressings which often contain impurities, such as iron, bone ash cannot contaminate castings. Because bone ash adheres well to mold surfaces, non-ferrous metal castings obtained from molds surfaces and non-ferrous metal castings obtained from molds dressed with Murlin Bone Ash, consistently feature a smoother finish and are virtually free from holes, cracks and other surface defects.
3
Econimical and Cost Efficient
Murlin Bone Ash lasts longer, goes further than competitive mold dressings. An equal quantity of bone ash covers up to three times more surface than an equal quantity of other agents. These attributes alone make Murlin Bone Ash a more economic alternative to red clay or other mold release agents.
4
Safe to use
Murlin Bone Ash is non-toxic, poses no fire hazard and requires no special handling precautions. As with any other fine powder-like substance, normal protection against dust should be taken, including the use of adequate ventilation and/or dust masks.
5
Easy House Keeping
Competitive dressings are messy, difficult and time consuming to clean up. Murlin Bone Ash makes housekeeping easy. Molds, refractories and other surfaces can be skimmed, wiped or brushed clean.
6
Environmentally Friendly
Bone ash waste may be emptied into industrial sewers or removed to dumps in accordance with local, state or federal regulations applicable to non-hazardous materials.
7
Easy to apply
Murlin Bone Ash may be Applied in several ways, including:
-
Dry Application- In its dry form, bone ash may be packed on by glove.
-
Slurry Application- A slurry of bone ash and water may be brushed, sprayed or painted onto surface.
-
Slurry Pre-Treatment- A third option is to pre-treat the surface with a slurry of bone ash, after which the dry bone ash may be applied.
In all cases, best results are obtained when bone ash is applied over new
or well cleaned surfaces.
