Application

1. Sodium silicate powder can be used as quick-drying agent and reinforcing agent for cement.
2. Used as the flocculating settling agent for drilling cuttings, the lost circulation additive for bentonite and cement,and the plugging agent for oil and gas wells. Also used as the binder for refractory materials, such as furnace gunning refractory, castable refractory, etc.
3. Used as the binder for foundry industry and insulation materials, and the thickening agent for oil industry, etc.
4.One of the ingredients of detergent.
