Cellulose powder is basically
Alpha Cellulose and is derived from cotton or
wood pulp. It is inert, non-abrasive, soft, absorbent
used in casing material of Welding Electrodes,
Rubber Mixes, Bakelite Plastic, Filtering Aids
etc available in white to cream powder form.
APPLICATIONS
-
When
used in welding electrodes, It leaves practically
nothing after incineration
and provides inert gas atmosphere at the
time
of Welding.
-
When
added to the rubber mix, the specific gravity
of the product is lowered, gives leather
like consistency without abrasion resistance to sole
sheets.
-
Cellulose
Powder is good depositing media during filtration
of galvanic baths and
organic solutions. Due to fine fibrous structure and surface of
the cellulose powders, good filtration
is obtained.
