All applications by Industry area

Customer case

Project with reclaimed MagnaDense

For the extensive project in The Netherlands, the Blankenburgverbinding, LKAB Minerals supplied temporary MagnaDense for a tunnel construction.

Application

Automotive Parts

Minerals reinforce polymers; MicaFort, a high aspect ratio mineral, provides very efficient warpage reduction and an improved surface finish for automotive parts.

Application

Brake pads

Brake pads can contain up to 20 different ingredients. Our customers use both MicaFort and MagniF to produce this part of the braking systems in cars.

Application

Adhesives and sealants

LKAB Minerals manufactures a range of mineral fillers used in sealants and adhesives for cost reduction, rheology modification and pigment extension.

Application

Anti-corrosion coating

The high aspect ratio of MicaFort provides barrier formation for anti-corrosion coatings, impeding the progress of corrosion onto any metal surface.
