Colloidal silica is used as a binder and a silica source due to its stability and ability to form long lasting ceramic slurries with a wide variety of refractory materials due to its chemical inertness. It can be used in ceramic shells for the casting of a wide range of metals. Bisley supplies their own range known as COLLOIDAL-SIL™.

Tabular alumina is a high density sintered alpha alumina. Tabular alumina is used in high quality refractories. It provides high temperature resistance, thermal and chemical stability, abrasion resistance, high mechanical strength and excellent shock resistance. Please inquire for specifications.

Brown fused alumina is a dense material produced from bauxite raw material. The end product has a low iron content making it particularly valuable in a variety of refractory applications. Please inquire about specifications.

White fused alumina is a very refractory, dense and chemically resistant material manufactured from calcined alumina. Recommended for use as a refractory flour and stucco. Please inquire for specifications.

ROTEX 47 is a calcined grog, also known as a chamotte and firesand, produced from high quality ore deposits. It is widely used in a variety of refractories as an aggregate that provides excellent thermal resistance, drying reduction and firing shrinkage.
