Product Catalog
Foundry Chemical Solutions
Browse a dedicated catalog for aluminum foundries, HPDC plants, gravity die casting operations, and melt treatment shops. Compare product families, move from process problem to use case, and shortlist the right chemistry faster.
Pick the right product by process stage, defect, and operation type
This section is built like a catalog, not a homepage showcase. Buyers can scan the products, see what Kelvin serves, compare where each chemistry fits, and go directly into the most relevant product or use-case page.
Who Kelvin serves
Foundry operations across the casting workflow
From melt treatment to ladle transfer, plunger lubrication, and die release, the product range is built for plants that need measurable process improvement instead of generic consumables.
KelviCoat
Foundries trying to stop ladle sticking, thermal shock damage, and repeated touch-ups.
Expected result
Longer ladle life with cleaner pours and less refractory maintenance.
We serve
Good for
- Non-wetting barrier for molten aluminum transfer
- Higher resistance to thermal cycling and spalling
- Lower maintenance frequency across repetitive heats
Selection note
Choose this when the bottleneck is ladle life, metal pickup, or inconsistent transfer quality.
hBN + TiO2 Material System
Brush-on Application
KelviGlide
HPDC lines fighting plunger wear, smoke, sleeve pickup, or inconsistent dosing.
Expected result
Validation-ready plunger lubrication for comparing wear, dosing, smoke, residue, and sleeve condition.
We serve
Good for
- Solid lubrication for high-temperature plunger travel
- Compare metal-to-metal contact indicators inside the shot sleeve
- Track smoke, residue, and dosing behavior against oil-heavy alternatives
Selection note
Choose this when your loss is in plunger life, sleeve protection, or auto-dispense reliability.
Compare in validation Cost Review
Up to 81% lower Wear Benchmark
KelviFlux UltraPure
Aluminum casters trying to reduce porosity, inclusions, and melt quality variation.
Expected result
Cleaner melt, lower gas defects, and better casting yield.
We serve
Good for
- Degassing support for aluminum and Al-Si melt treatment
- Lower hydrogen-related defect risk before casting
- Better inclusion removal for more stable downstream quality
Popular use cases
Selection note
Choose this when the problem starts in the melt, not at the die or ladle.
ADC12/Al-Si Alloys
Granular Format
KelviRelease UltraCast
Die casting operations needing cleaner release, soldering-risk tracking, and stable spray performance.
Expected result
Validation-ready spray process for comparing release, residue, pickup, and die-cleaning effort.
We serve
Good for
- Stable film formation on hot die surfaces
- Compare pickup, soldering, and drag-related defects
- Validate dilution window and cost-per-shot through line data
Selection note
Choose this when the main issues are die pickup, release quality, or finish consistency.

Selection framework
How to choose the right product quickly
1. Identify the first failing process step
Decide whether the loss starts in melt treatment, ladle transfer, plunger lubrication, or die release.
2. Match the chemistry to your line conditions
Review alloy, temperature, dosing method, thermal load, and defect pattern before shortlisting.
3. Validate on one controlled line
Validate the product under the same line condition that is currently causing scrap, wear, or unstable performance.
Need a recommendation
Tell us the issue and we will map it to the right product line
If your team is not sure whether the problem starts in the melt, ladle, plunger, or die, we can help narrow the choice before on-site validation.
How should a buyer use this catalog page?
Start with the process stage where the loss happens first, compare the product cards, and then open the matching product or use-case page.
Can one foundry use more than one Kelvi product?
Yes. These product lines solve different problems across melt treatment, ladle protection, lubrication, and die release.
What is the fastest way to shortlist the right product?
Match the chemistry to the failure point, check the relevant use cases, and validate the choice on-site under your actual line conditions.
