Organic binding agents
FLOFORM™ series
Organic binding agents used in the iron ore pellet production process are the FLOFORM ™ series.
The formation of pellets typically requires the use of additives of binding agents to ensure sufficient efficiency of pellet formation steps, their calcination and reduction.
FLOFORM ™ is a series of organic polymers specially developed for the processes of iron ore granulation. They can completely or partially replace silica containing binders, such as bentonite.
FLOFORM ™ – polymers can be modified to achieve specific characteristics of iron ore. Polymers FLOFORM ™ are self-spreading powders that can be added directly to the concentrate so that the granulation process flows more gently.

Features:
Support
Our specialists will help you choose polymers, and also advise you to choose the right equipment (you may need to develop and supply equipment for adding FLOFORM ™ in suitable factory conditions)
Transportation and storage
Polymers can be supplied in a 25 kg polypropylene bag, packed in a pallet tray for best protection, or in large bags of 750 kg. FLOFORM ™ should be stored in a closed dry place.
Health and Safety
FLOFORM ™ is considered a model of low toxicity. Anyway, beware of inhalation, contact with skin and eye contact. Observe the basics of industrial safety and hygiene.
