Since the start of this year, BASF has been supplying automotive primers and finishing varnishes to Ford Otosan in Turkey. Recently, the two companies have signed an extended partnership agreement, marking a significant step forward in their collaboration. Ford Otosan is not only one of the top automotive brands in Turkey but also a key supplier of commercial vehicles for Ford Motor Company across Europe.
Beyond just paint supplies, BASF offers Ford Otosan advanced coating technologies and a dedicated technical support team. Monika, head of BASF’s European automotive division, expressed her enthusiasm: “We are proud to be working with Ford Otosan in the commercial vehicle sector. The demand for high-quality coatings and exceptional service is immense, and we are fully committed to delivering the best possible support.â€
To better serve its growing customer base, BASF has introduced a new waterproof coating solution tailored for Ford Otosan. The company's paint department manager emphasized that this partnership enables them to deliver superior products and services to end users.
Ford Otosan is home to Turkey’s largest automotive research and development center, backed by one of the highest R&D investments in the country. Since 2005, it has consistently ranked among the top three automotive exporters in Turkey. In 2012, Ford Otosan expanded its global reach, exporting vehicles and parts to over 76 countries across five continents, solidifying its position as a leader in Turkey’s automotive industry.Low porosity clay bricks are made of low aluminum mullite as the main raw material, formed by high pressure molding and high temperature sintering. The main mineral composition is mullite phase, the product has excellent high temperature physical properties and chemical erosion resistance.
Low porosity clay brick stability is good, the degree of erosion does not occur sudden change, than ordinary clay brick life increased by 2 to 3 times. Thermal conductivity, specific heat and solubility, respectively, than ordinary clay bricks 2 times higher than 10% and 40%, heat storage capacity than ordinary clay bricks 50% to 60% higher than the thermal efficiency of the kiln can be improved.
Low porosity clay bricks are characterized by:
1. Low porosity, 13 to 15%;
2. Load softening temperature is high for about 1472 ℃;
3. High compressive strength at room temperature, generally about 100MPa;
4. Good volume stability at high temperature and good abrasion resistance;
5. good resistance to infiltration and erosion.
Low porosity clay brick as a good clay refractory brick products, so often used in chemical erosion, temperature fluctuations in the environment, such as steel, glass, chemical industry. The effect is quite obvious in the use of glass hot room and the use of iron water tank.
