Automotive
In the automotive industry, the quality and performance of materials used are of paramount importance. Our products are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of this sector, ensuring that vehicles are built to the highest standards of excellence.
One of our key products is ALTIFIL™ FG, a versatile mineral filler that is ideal for various automotive applications. ALTIFIL™ FG imparts strength to fired ceramic products and is used for refractory applications. It offers exceptional heat shock and creep resistance properties, making it a valuable raw material for automotive ceramics.
ALTIFIL™ FG also provides permanent expansion, excellent reheat stability, low hot load deformation, low reversible thermal expansion, low thermal conductivity, low shrinkage, and high resistance to molten ingress. These attributes are crucial for automotive components exposed to high temperatures, ensuring their long-term durability and performance.
Our commitment to quality extends to the purity of our ores, which are exceptionally high in quality. They are hydrophobic, non-abrasive, and contain low levels of iron oxide and calcium. These attributes enhance dimensional stability and provide resistance to UV degradation, ensuring the longevity of automotive components.
The benefits of incorporating ALTIFIL™ FG into automotive components are manifold. These additives offer excellent reinforcement properties, enhance corrosion resistance, increase tensile strength, improve wear and impact resistance, and contribute to increased thermal and creep resistance. Additionally, they promote nucleation and create a uniform pore structure, which is beneficial for various automotive applications.
With ALTIFIL™ FG and our other mineral products, Trinity Performance Minerals offers a wide range of possibilities for the automotive industry. Our high-quality mineral solutions are designed to improve the performance and properties of automotive components, making them more resilient, visually appealing, and suitable for a broad spectrum of applications.
