Portaryte® 010

Sold by Sibelco

Portaryte® 010 is the naturally occurring form of barium sulfate (BaS04). It has a high specific gravity (4.5) and very low solubility. The Portaryte® natural baryte range delivers a variety of benefits, from improving UV and chemical resistance in coatings to increasing soundproofing in plastics and enhancing friction in brake linings.
