Products in Additives: Iron & Iron Compounds

Portafer M63 is produced from iron oxide, in which the main constituent is magnetite (Fe3O4). The standardized quality of Portafer® M 63 is guaranteed by an ISO 9001-certified quality management plan. The raw materials and production are closely monitored to ensure a constant quality with regard to their chemical composition and grain size. Portafer® M is the filler of choice for sound deadening in automotive and domestic applications due to its exceptionally high density. Portafer® M is used in some applications because of its ferro magnetic properties, such as magnetic paints and microwave heatable compounds.

SST®-4 is a white low MW PTFE micropowder with particle size distribution at a mean value of 3-4 µm. SST® products are Shamrock’s PTFE micropowders that are defined by particle size and distribution, molecular weight, crystallinity, surface area, oil adsorption, powder flow, and color. Made primarily from highly controlled recycled PTFE feedstocks, SST® products are used for their ability to provide slip, non-stick, water repellency, texture, release, rub, and abrasion resistance to surfaces.

Duroct® Iron 9% has improved combustion, often used with calcium or manganese (Stationary Boilers). It is standard drier available in various percentages.

The Hindustan Mineral Products Red Oxide RF (65%) 240# has many applications in industry due to its excellent quality. The most important characteristic of natural oxide is its stability under all practical conditions. It is not substantially affected chemically or physically by light, humidity, alkalis or weak acids. The iron oxide pigments are non reactive with solvent, oils and resins. They are invariably characterized by the case with which they can be dispersed in all Vehicles (oils, resins, water systems).

Organo Fe 8 is a Ion salt solution of 2-ethylhexanoic acid in aromatic free mineral spirit.

Prakash Chemicals Iron Octoate is an auxiliary drier used as a pigments dispersing agent. The pigment such as titanium dioxide and carbon black have the tendency to absorb driers which reduces loss or effect of drying rate. Contact our Product Manager for details.

Casal De Rey Iron Octoate 8% contains iron which participates in oxidative drying at temperatures above 1300C, being ineffective at room temperature.
