lightweight fillers
Lightweight fillers are used extensively in applications such as joint compounds, insulating paints, elastomeric roof and high reflective coatings, polyester putties, adhesives and sealants, mastics, underbody coatings, and many cementitious applications such as tile adhesives, renders, grouts, insulating mortar, and structural concrete. The fillers provide benefits including reduced weight of final products, increased yield / coverage, enhanced rheological properties such as sag resistance or sandability, and improved insulating properties such as emittance, reflectivity, and thermal conductivity. All of these benefits lead to clear and tangible savings while improving the application of the final product.
