THE PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES OF BAYMAL®
Chemicals
ACTUAL AND SUGGESTED FUNCTIONS OF "BAYMAL"! IN SOME INDUSTRIES Chemical Specialties
(275 sq. meters/gram); from solution it can be exhausted onto negative surfaces to produce mono- or multi-layer films; it can be combined with minerals, pigments, fibers, and other materials to form coatings and shapes; or it can be formed into porous or fused bodies directly from its original dry state. Now you can begin to see what makes "Baymal" colloidal alumina so unique.
Catalysts
From Du Pont research comes " B a y m a l " colloidal alumina, a new material with a versatility that challenges your imagination. A white powder, "Baymal" consists of clusters of submicroscopic, crystalline fibrils of boehmite alumina (ALOOH). The powder disperses easily in water, yielding a stable, positively charged sol composed of the discrete, ultimate fibrils. It has a high specific surface area
