Perlite P05 Ultrafine

Applications	Paint,grout and general fillers Oil and chemical absorbent Water treatment additive and rough filter aid Animal and poultry feeds and fat pre-mixes Anti-caking additive and drying agent
Chemical Properties	Perlite P05 is an aluminium silicate. Typical composition is: Silicon (SiO2) 73% Aluminium (Al2O3) 15% Iron (Fe2O3) 2% Sodium (Na2O) 3% Potassium (K2O) 5% Calcium (CaO) + Magnesium (MgO) 1% Others 1% pH 6.5 - 7.5 Organic Matter nil Moisture Content (when packed) nil
Physical Properties	Expanded Perlite P05 is white with a nominal particle size of 10-750 microns. Refractive Index 0.5 Free Moisture (max) 0.5% pH of Water Slurry 6.5 - 7.5 Softening Point 890 - 1100oC Fushion Point 1280 - 1350oC Specific Heat 837J/kgK (0.2 cal/gc) Thermal Condcuctivity 0.05 w/mc
Grading Specification	The bulk density of Perlite P05 is 180-200 kg/m3 (compacted). Sieve Size % by weight passing 1.18 Trace - 100 600 micron 98 - 100 300 micron 80 - 98 150 micron 30 - 80 75 micron 10 - 30 45 micron 0 - 10
Packaging	Perlite P05 is normally supplied in plastic sacks containing 100 litres (approximately 3.5ft3). Alternative packaging is available to order.
Health and Safety	Expanded Perlite P05 is a heat-processed, inorganic material and since no chemical changes occur it is considered non-reportable. However it is advisable to study the Perlite Material Safety Data Sheet compiled in accordance with COSHH/CHIP Regulations.
