Rigidizer - Gallon or Quart
Rigidizer™
Select Quart or gallon size above.
Rigidizer is acolloidal silica inorganic liquid hardener, has a temperature grade rating of 1260°C (2300°F). It is generally used to increase the durability and surface erosion resistance of Inswool/Kaowool/Fiberfrax blanket, module, and board products.
Kaowool (Inswool) Rigidizer is stabilized against freezing during exposure to cold; however, freezing should be avoided.
If you live in a freeze area do not order this during winter months. Clay Planet will not be held responsible if it freezes.
-Sets with strong, hard film and develops ceramic bond above 1600°F (871°C)
-Can be used for spray, dip, or brush applications over fiber blanket, boards, or modules to impart extra strength
-To verify depth of penetration of the rigidizer product, a food grade dye can be added to give color to the rigidizer. This will not harm material or the rigidizer.

Installation Information
-
Kaowool (inswool) Rigidizer is applied by brushing, dipping, rolling, and spraying. Suitable respiratory protection and ventilation are required when applied by spraying.
- Materials to be rigidized should be free of all grease and oil.
- Kaowool (inswool) Rigidizer receives its bonding action from the removal of physical water. Bonding may be accelerated by heating or over drying. Curing is a function of the size of the shape and its geometry.
- An application rate of one gallon per 25 square feet (7.6 m2) of ceramic fiber surface will render a hard surface without completely rigidizing the interior of the ceramic fiber body.

- Please handle all raw materials with safety in mind. The Dry form of all clay, glaze, and raw materials can expose you to hazards when not handled properly.
- When handling and mixing DRY ceramic materials and powders, wear a full breathing respirator, eye protection, and gloves to protect your lungs and hands
