2THICKENERS
Within this product group we include all liquid thickeners which are easy to apply and fast acting. These products are characterized because by addition of very low doses, we managed to increase the viscosity of glazes glazes, slips, serigraphs and other ceramic products.
Taking in care, the different nature of each of the thickeners that we sell, we have succeeded in formulating multifunctional products, which not only act as viscosity regulators but that correct defects due to the preparation and implementation of pasta, and / or the production process.
To optimize the production process is essential to regulate the viscosity of the pastes, and being able to correct the defects that may arise due to the preparation of pastas (eg overdosage of deflocculant), application of pastes (fluency, thixotropy ...), and / or the production process (application method, ...)

3RHEOLOGICAL ADDITIVES
Within this group of products we include all additives specially designed to modify viscosity and thixotropy of the glazes. Rheological additives are widely used in sanitary ware, where it is essential to adjust viscosity, thixotropy and drying time of glaze.
Compared to the traditional use of CMC's, such additives provide the glaze not only binding power, but higher thixotropy and better control of the drying time. This allows good thickness of the layer of glaze, and avoids defects in the surface layer.

4BIOCIDES
ADITIVOS CERAMICOS S.L. presents in its range of preservatives ADICIDE two product lines: products formulated with isothiazolone (MIT / CIT) and derivatives of benzoisotiazolonas (BIT).
These two lines are formulated in both solid form (adsorbed on kaolin) and liquid form, at different concentrations. They are characterized by wide spectrum biocides to combat both bacterial growth and fungal growth.
Preservatives formulated with isothiazolone (MIT / CIT) are highly effective at very low concentrations and have high stability in usual pH ranges (6-8.5). Formulations benzoisotiazolonas derivatives (BIT) have the advantage of high stability even at pH's above 10.
The main products sold under the name ADICIDE are:

5FIXATIVES
ADITIVOS CERAMICOS S.L. presents in its range of FIXATIVES, different products to match the densities and viscosities of production requirements.
Fixative is applied over glaze surface, so it creates a thin layer that prevents contamination and distortion of the applied decoration on unfired pieces.
In ADITIVOS CERAMICOS we have developed fixatives for use in combination with digital decoration, whether the printing is before or after the application of fixative.
