Fillite® Cenospheres

Fillite® cenospheres are a glass hard, inert, hollow silicate sphere. They are primarily used to reduce the weight of plastics, rubbers, resins, cement etc. but also impart further benefits in many situations. Many of the advantages from the use of Fillite®, including increased filler loading and improved rheology are directly attributed to the spherical nature of the material.



Characteristics:
  • Light weight
  • Free Flowing
  • Gray in colour
  • Spherical
  • Inert

 

Typical Applications Standard grades & SG (500) Grades:
  • Refractories
  • PVC Flooring
  • Oilwell Cements
  • Brake Linings
  • Phenolics
  • Epoxies
  • Cast Polyesters
  • Synthetic Marbles
  • Syntactic Foams
  • BMC, SMC and FRP
  • Low density Cements
  • Shotcrete
  • Gypsum board joint compounds
  • Automotive sound-dampening sheets

 

 

Typical Applications Speciality Grades (High Alumina):

SGHA has a higher alumina content than the normal Fillite® grades and has been specifically developed for higher temperature applications such as:

  • Refractories
  • Foundry applications
  • High temperature resistant coatings

 

Other higher alumina grades are whiter in colour and particularly suitable for:

  • Gypsum board jointing compounds
  • Veneering plasters
  • Stuccos
  • Sealants
  • Coatings
  • Cast resins

 

Advantages:

  • Reduced weight
  • Increased filler loadings
  • Better flow characteristics
  • Less shrinkage and warping
  • Improved physical properties in mouldings, castings and laminates
  • Reduced water absorption
  • Improved flame retardance
  • Improved chemical resistance
