Aspirina Posted May 9, 2018 Posted May 9, 2018 Anyone knows what is that glue used in 0:57?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBTbEoKU-Vg I saw it in the chinese shells, when is dried is like a stone, in this video I see it the first time working with it...By the consistence of the final result Im very interested in this glue, I think that is a good replacement for hotglue (if is not to expensive) Greetings
Arthur Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 If the Chinese factories use a product you can be certain that it's the cheapest product that works.
OldMarine Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Westech has one in their manual that uses sodium silicate and whatnot but it doesn't look like that glop they were using.
Col Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Going by the colour and consistancy, i`d guess its maybe a bentonite and silicate combo which would provide good gap filling/sealing qualities with heat resistance and adhesion. It would definitely set like stone
Aspirina Posted May 11, 2018 Author Posted May 11, 2018 Thanks for the answers, anyone knows how to make it? "bentonite and silicate" tutorial or something like this?
Baldor Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Sodium silicate is also known as soluble glass. You can find it in manualities stores. I bough some here: https://mezclaperfecta.com/prod-quimicos-y-adit-alimentarios/12543-silicato-sodico-1000-ml.html I don't know about proportions to make a proper paste, but both components are so cheap that experimenting should be easy.
OldMarine Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 The one I'm referring to contains calcium carbonate, zinc oxide and sodium silicate.
Col Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 Next time i`m in the shed i`ll mix a few different batches and see what it looks like. The ingredients are cheap, sodium silicate is around 50p a litre, bentonite maybe 45p a kilo
kaotch Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Michael Fallas has reported on Passfire about this glue.Anyone still has a subscription for PS look it up and pls report back.As far as I remember it is water soluble and has a very limited shelflive.
davidh Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 FYI, zinc oxide mixed with sodium silicate cures rather quickly, so that's not what they are using. 1
Col Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 calcium bentonite and sodium silicate can be mixed together, how long it remains workable for is the question https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/imono/40/8/40_638/_article 1
