YZ Binder
The YZ Binder is the water-based binder liquid that is used for typical yttria or zirconia washcoatings. The term “washcoating” is indicative of a low hardness coating similar to a whitewash house paint. Thus, coatings produced with this binder liquid will always have low hardness on drying and can be easily washed back off if re-wetted (i.e., have low water resistance). The binder also has a relatively low ability to suspend solids and generally produces medium to low viscosity coatings with most refractory powders. With a pH of 7, the binder is generally not very reactive to materials if they are not reactive with water. Other properties – specific gravity of 1.01; 97% volatiles on heating to 750 C outgassing temperature [water and carbon oxides are the outgassing species]; long shelf life [>12 months]. Based on a cellulosic suspension agent/binder, a 100% glassy carbon phase results for the high-temperature binding: thus YZ Binder should only be used in vacuum or inert atmospheres (i.e., not for air usage) and can be used to 2000 C.
***Note-contains NO yttrium oxide.
