LADLEX

LADLEX is a fine, Insulating powder for ladle covering. It is highly insulating in nature and has low density. Being Al2O3 base it is neutral in nature. This material is expanding type powder which spreads readily on the top surface of liquid steel in the ladle thereby minimizing heat loss due to radiation. LADLEX is specially formulated for use as a covering compound for Ladles used for Secondary steel treatment such as LF/VD/VAD etc. The material is refractory base & has low Silica & Fe2O3 content. Due to high insulating nature of Ladlex, skull formation in the ladle is minimised and inside wall of ladle is clean. This improves overall metal yield and ladle turnaround time
