| Sep 25, 2013 — Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is an alumina-silica, fiber-reinforced, ceramic coating used to bond, coat and seal graphite and refractory materials used in molten metal fluid handling components and structures in foundry applications to 2300°F (1260°C). A new application for Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is the insulation of graphite impellers used in the handling of molten aluminum; the 634-AS prevents wear and oxidation of the graphite at the melt line. Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is rated for temperatures up to 2300°F (1260°C) and exhibits exceptional adhesion to graphite, ceramic cloth and fiberboard. Pyro-Paint™ is resistant to wetting by non-ferrous molten metals, increasing the durability, erosion resistance and reliability of the underlying structure. Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is formulated with a solids content of 61.2% by weight and 63.3% by volume to a viscosity range is 400-700 cP. It is applied typically by brush, roller or conventional spray equipment. Dry films from 2-3 mils up to 3/8" can be produced without cracking. Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is a simple to use, environmentally friendly, water-based formulation containing no volatile organic compounds. It dries at room temperature in several hours and cures fully within 2 hours at 200°F. Pyro-Paint™ 634-AS is part of a line of refractory coatings based on ceramic fillers including boron nitride, carbon, graphite, yttrium oxide, and zirconium oxide.
