Barium sulfate or sulphate is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula BaSO4. It is a white crystalline solid that is odorless and insoluble in water. It occurs as the mineral barite, which is the main commercial source of barium and materials prepared from it. The white opaque appearance and its high density are exploited in its main applications.
This product is made of only the high purity, natural barium sulfate ore. A strictly controlled manufacturing process results in consistent quality products that are used in coatings, printing, paint, plastics, rubber, friction materials, and many other applications where color, purity, and particle size are principal concerns.
Barium sulfate is used as a filler for coating, paint, rubber, plastic, thermosetting plastic powder, paper brightener, textile, etc. And it is used as a filler in glass production. It has the effect of increasing the glossiness of glass.
Application
Pigment
The majority of synthetic barium sulfate is used as a component of white pigment for paints. In oil paint, barium sulfate is almost transparent, and is used as a filler or to modify consistency.
Plastics filler
Barium sulfate is commonly used as a filler for plastics to increase the density of the polymer in vibrational mass damping applications.
Niche uses
Barium sulfate is used in soil testing. Tests for soil pH and other qualities of soil use colored indicators, and small particles (usually clay) from the soil can cloud the test mixture and make it hard to see the color of the indicator.
Copper industry
As barium sulfate has a high burning point and is insoluble in water, it is used as a coating material in the casting copper anode plates. The anode plates are cast in copper molds, so to avoid the contact of the liquid copper and the solid copper mold, a solution of barium sulfate in water is used as a coating material on the mold surface. Thus when the liquid copper solidifies in form of an anode plate it can be easily released from its mold.
Application:
It is widely used as a filler to reduce production costs and improve product features accordingly.
Rubber Industry - Tire and rubber, insulation rubber, rubber plate, adhesive tape, engineering plastics can enhance the product's anti-aging performance and climate resistance, the product is not easy to aging embrittlement, and can significantly improve the surface finish, reduce the production cost, as the main filler for powder coating is the primary means of regulating the powder bulk density increased rate of the powder.
Functional Material Industry - Papermaking materials(mainly used in paste products), flame retardant materials, anti-X-ray materials, battery cathode materials, etc. Can show a unique performance, is an important component of relevant materials.
Coating Industry - Precipitated Barium sulfate used in the coating can increase the hardness of coating film and resistant model, has the advantages of high whiteness, high contamination, and the proportion of barium sulfate can increase the solid content of the coating.
Powder Coating Industry - In powder coatings, barium sulfate is better than most other fillers, especially in chemical resistance coating the inert insoluble in water, acid, alkali, and organic intermediate. Excellent gloss and fineness of the particles, and can increase the surface hardness, and color stability.
Masterbatch Industry - Precipitated Barium Sulfate used in masterbatch production, can improve acid and alkali resistance, gravity, thermal stability, and dispersity. Also, it can help to save the production cost.
Blowing Film Industry - Improve the property of the film, such as anti-viscosity, hardness, and tearing resistance. Reduce the production cost and carbon emission during production. Improve the transparency of the film.
