Used as a binder in investment casting due to its ability to form strong, heat-resistant ceramic shells. Provides excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish on cast metal parts. Also used in refractory materials to enhance strength and thermal stability at high temperatures. In coatings and paints, improves scratch resistance, adhesion, and durability. Applied in the paper industry to improve strength and water resistance of paper products. Utilized in catalyst supports because of its high surface area and thermal stability. Acts as a clarifying agent in water treatment by aiding coagulation and filtration processes. In the electronics industry, employed in chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) of silicon wafers for achieving smooth surfaces and precise particle size control. Commonly used in precision manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive industries where high-performance materials are required.
