Dichtol/Sealing Oil

Capillary active sealer for porous structures from Diamant Polymer Solutions 

Dichtol  is the proven solution for sealing  porous structures across various industries, including  3D printing,  Foundry Industry  and  Thermal Spraying. Our capillary-active sealants, made from advanced polymers and inorganic materials, penetrate deeply into even the finest pores, offering reliable and effective sealing. This protection enhances the surface properties of your components, safeguarding them from external influences. 

Depending on your needs, dichtol can also provide additional functions such as electrical insulation, electrical conductivity, or non-stick properties. 

How does dichtol work in 3D printing? 

Our low-viscosity sealant leverages capillary action to deeply penetrate the finest pores and leaks in components. Once cured, it forms a durable plastic structure that effectively seals the component, ensuring reliable and long-lasting protection. This high-performance sealant is designed to enhance the integrity and durability of your parts, providing a complete, reliable seal for various industrial applications.  

Many 3D-printed components cannot be used functionally without post-processing. Mechanical strength, impermeability and protection against environmental influences pose a particular challenge. Our innovative solutions for the post-processing of 3D printed components optimize stability, durability and performance. With our high-quality sealants and casting resins, you can improve the resilience and durability of your additively manufactured components – for maximum application possibilities. 

Infiltrating, Impregnating and Sealing 

Dichtol is the sophisticated, ready-to-use polymer impregnation system for the safe, fast sealing of micropores, porosities and hairline cracks in rapid prototyping, 3D printing and additive manufacturing. Thanks to dichtol’s outstanding capillary activity, the polymer penetrates deep into the workpiece and hardens there – in addition to sealing and impregnating the surface.

The high-performance polymer anchors itself in the treated part and seals it reliably even at changing temperatures. In addition to the surface finish, dichtol also improves the basic properties of the workpiece. For example, the strength of brittle materials and the dimensional stability of the part. 

How does dichtol work in the foundry industry? 

Due to the casting process, castings often exhibit residual porosity and sometimes micro-cracks. With DIAMANT sealing, the tightness of castings is significantly enhanced without the need for a vacuum or complex machinery. This innovative sealing solution effectively optimizes casting integrity, ensuring reliable performance and durability across various applications. 

150 Years of Foundry Excellence: Sustainable Solutions for Dense, Fault-Free Castings 

The foundry industry remains indispensable, yet challenges like leakage and casting defects persist. Instead of increasing costs through waste, our advanced sealing solutions ensure dense, fault-free castings. Our proven products effectively seal defects almost invisibly, enhancing durability and reducing waste. Get the right solution tailored to your specific needs and improve the quality of your cast parts today! 

Optimize Casting Quality with Easy, Effective Sealing 

Post-treatment of castings with dichtol enhances sealing, improves component quality, and boosts functionality. Unlike traditional methods, dichtol penetrates deep into pores and micro-cracks using capillary action, eliminating the need for complex machinery or a vacuum system. This efficient, cost-effective solution ensures leak-proof, durable castings, reducing defects and extending component lifespan. 

Upgrade your metal casting process with dichtol for flawless, high-performance results! 

Effortless Repair of Blowholes & Casting Defects 

Blowholes and other casting imperfections can be easily repaired with our customizable sealing solutions. With adjustable viscosity and a wide range of color options, our  plastic metals  are suitable for almost any metal. Once hardened, the material can be processed just like the original metal, ensuring seamless integration and high durability. 

Improve casting quality, reduce waste, and enhance component performance with plastic metal! 

How does dichtol work in thermal spraying? 

With its low viscosity, dichtol sealer penetrates deeply into open pores through capillary action, without the need for additional pressure or a vacuum. Once applied, dichtol cures to form a stable polymer structure that effectively seals the pores. This process reduces gas and liquid permeability, boosts corrosion resistance, and significantly extends the service life of the coating, ensuring long-lasting protection and improved performance. 

Maximize Spray Coating Performance with Advanced Sealants 

Untreated thermal spray coatings are naturally microporous, which can affect durability and performance.  

As experts in sealing solutions, we offer a wide range of high-quality dichtol sealants designed to optimize and protect thermal spray coatings. Need a customized solution? Our chemists develop tailor-made formulations to meet your exact requirements. 

Effective Corrosion Protection for Thermally Sprayed Coatings 

Untreated thermally sprayed coatings are microporous, allowing moisture to penetrate and potentially causing corrosion. Under-corrosion can lead to long-term damage, compromising the coating’s effectiveness. Our specially formulated dichtol sealants penetrate deep into the pores, providing permanent and reliable protection against corrosion. 

Enhance the durability and performance of your thermal spray coatings with our advanced corrosion protection solutions. 

Enhance Electrical Insulation with High-Quality Sealants for Thermally Sprayed Coatings 

Commonly used sprayed insulation layers, such as those made of Al₂O₃, ZrO₂, or Cr₂O₃, are microporous and often hygroscopic, meaning they can absorb moisture that negatively impacts the electrical insulation properties. To prevent this, a suitable sealer in compliance with DIN EN ISO 14924 can significantly improve the insulation performance. 

We provide highly effective dichtol sealants with proven functionality, designed to enhance the electrical insulation of thermally sprayed coatings. 

Non-Stick Coatings: High-Performance Sealers for Thermal Spray Applications 

The lotus effect and Teflon pans are common associations with non-stick properties, but the scope of thermally sprayed non-stick coatings extends far beyond these examples. These coatings are widely used in industries such as printing and paper manufacturing, offering a range of specialized applications. 

Our non-stick sealers are as versatile as the industries they serve. They are crucial in providing thermally sprayed coatings with the desired non-stick properties.
