red iron oxide

Iron oxides are chemical compounds formed by iron and oxygen.
They are called oligisto or hematite, a word that comes from the Greek haimatitis, blood red, alluding to the color of the mineral dust. Ferric oxide or hematite is a compound whose molecule is made up of two iron atoms and three oxygen atoms (Fe2O3).
Silmin Ibérica is specialized in the marketing and distribution of high purity red iron oxides for the industry. We market and distribute natural and synthetic iron oxides. The granulometric diversity that we can supply allows us to distribute the appropriate size of the product depending on its final application.

Silmin Ibérica ensures the logistical supply for the entire range of iron oxides.

We supply natural and synthetic iron oxides for the industry, depending on the application of the final product, using dump trucks, dump trucks, tank trucks, big bags, bagged. Pigments based on iron oxides are non-toxic, do not exude, are relatively inert, resistant to weathering, opaque and unalterable by light.

The main characteristics of the red iron oxides supplied and marketed by Silmin Ibérica are: stability at high temperatures and under ultraviolet radiation, great oil absorption capacity (considerably influencing the consumption of binders); the shape of the iron oxide particles red iron that improve the surface area, grain size and its distribution, improving the optical properties of the pigment. The low percentage of water-soluble salts found in red iron oxide guarantees greater protection against corrosion in protective coating applications.
Silmin Ibérica, with its range of products, distributes the following high-quality iron oxides for the manufacture of various industrial products:

NATURAL RED IRON OXIDE / NATURAL RED IRON OXIDE
SYNTHETIC RED IRON OXIDE

The variety of granulometric cuts means that our red iron oxides are used in the manufacture of different industrial products for very diverse industrial sectors:
Red iron oxides for paints and coatings.
Red iron oxides for Construction.
Red iron oxides for glass.
Red iron oxides for Fertilizers.
Red iron oxides for Frits.
Red iron oxides for enamels.
