Mode of Action

Due to its special composition the application of Betol 39 T3 together with inorganic or organic inert substances (e.g. fillers) results in stable high strength bonds.

Applications

Betol 39 T3 is applied as binder for the production of insulating, fire protecting and other construction panels. Furthermore it is used as a binder for mineral dusts and for agglomerating or briquetting of coal, mineral or metal dusts. Betol 39 T 3 is also used as binder in acid or fire proof cements and as setting accelerator for shotcrete mortars.

Properties

• Stable, alkaline liquid.
• Enhanced wetting properties, especially on inorganic and mineral substances.
• Can be cured by organic or inorganic hardeners, acidic gasses (e.g. CO) or higher temperatures.
• Heat and acid resistant bonds are obtained.
• In combination with special hardeners water stable bonds can be achieved.
