Lithium Polysilicate

Lith™ (LS)45 Lithium Silicate is an aqueous polysilicate solution with a molar ratio of 4.5 (ranging 4.35-5.0) that has a high concentration of lithium produced with Lithium Hydroxide. The reactive silicate forms a stable, high ratio, low viscosity solution that results in lower levels of water in coatings and can dramatically improve film formation, water resistance, abrasion, hardness and bonding properties for many applications, including concrete surface treatments, specialty paints and coatings. Adhesion: Addition of Lithium Silicate to Sodium or Potassium Silicates improves the adhesion to various different surfaces.

Lithium Silicate (LS)45 HS  is a high solids aqueous polysilicate solution with a molar ratio of 4.5 (4.2 - 4.8) allows for improved interaction and compounding when used as a reactive binder and/or hardener in coatings, treatments, and sealers. The reactive silicate has a higher concentration of lithium and is preferred to sodium and/or potassium silicates for many applications, including concrete surface treatments, specialty paints and coatings. Especially suitable for high performance zinc coatings for marine and industrial applications in which high pigment loading and water and wear resistance are desired.

Lith™ (LPS)39 is an aqueous polysilicate hybrid blend solution with a molar ratio of 3.9 (ranging 3.8-4.0). Ideal for many applications including; concrete surface treatments, specialty paints and coatings, welding rod binders, refractory materials, ceramics and glazes.
