Phosphates for Ceramic Manufacturing
Improve slurry fluidity, glaze stability, and casting efficiency with phosphate additives for ceramic production.
Better Slurry Control for Efficient Ceramic Production
In ceramic manufacturing, slurry rheology directly affects casting stability, spray-drying energy use, and final surface quality.
Goway phosphate additives help ceramic plants reduce slurry viscosity, lower water demand, improve glaze dispersion, and maintain more stable production conditions across body and glaze systems.
- ✅ Lower slurry viscosity: Improve flowability with less water addition.
- ✅ Reduce drying energy: Lower moisture content before spray drying.
- ✅ Improve glaze stability: Better dispersion and fewer agglomerates.
- ✅ Support casting consistency: More stable body preparation and application performance.

How Ceramic Phosphates Work
Designed for slurry control, water reduction, and glaze stability in ceramic processing.
Slurry Deflocculation
STPP helps increase electrostatic repulsion between clay particles, improving dispersion and reducing slurry viscosity. This supports better flow with lower water content.
Water Reduction
When slurry flow improves, less water is needed in body preparation. Lower water content can help reduce spray-drying load and improve overall production efficiency.
Glaze Dispersion & Stability
SHMP supports glaze dispersion, helps prevent agglomeration, and improves suspension stability, contributing to smoother surface appearance and more consistent glaze application.
Common Ceramic Processing Problems We Help Solve
Typical challenges in ceramic body and glaze preparation.
High Slurry Viscosity
Poor flowability can limit casting performance and increase water demand.
Excess Water Addition
Higher moisture raises spray-drying energy consumption and slows processing efficiency.
Poor Glaze Dispersion
Agglomeration and unstable suspension can lead to uneven application and surface defects.
Inconsistent Casting Stability
Unstable body systems can affect forming consistency and downstream quality control.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is STPP used for in ceramic slurry?
STPP is commonly used as a ceramic deflocculant to improve slurry flowability, reduce viscosity, and lower water demand in body preparation.
When should I use SHMP in ceramic processing?
SHMP is typically used when glaze dispersion, suspension stability, and smoother application performance are priorities in ceramic glaze systems.
Can phosphate additives reduce spray-drying energy consumption?
They can help indirectly by reducing the amount of water needed in slurry systems, which may lower the drying load during spray drying.
Can you recommend a grade based on our formulation?
Yes. We can recommend suitable grades based on your ceramic body or glaze system, solids content, process conditions, and target performance.
