Bonderite L-CA HKKS is a high-purity semicolloidal graphite-water dispersion for gravity and low-pressure casting of non-ferrous metals — a proven release agent with high opacity and high-temperature resistance.
Bonderite L-CA release agents and mold coatings from Henkel/Acheson for gravity, low-pressure, and die casting of aluminum, zinc, magnesium, and other non-ferrous metals — water-based, with excellent release and insulating properties. L-CA HKKS is tailored to specific industrial applications — the most important properties and areas of application are listed below.
Bonderite L-CA HKKS (formerly Hydrokollag Kokillenschlichte) is a high-purity, semi-colloidal graphite dispersion in water—a long-established release agent for gravity and low-pressure casting of non-ferrous metals. Its high opacity and excellent release properties protect insulating coatings from premature wear and produce pore-free castings.

Frequently asked questions about L-CA HKKS
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
Bonderite L-CA HKKS: High-purity semicolloidal graphite-water dispersion for gravity and low-pressure casting of non-ferrous metals — a proven release agent with high opacity and high-temperature resistance. Main applications: Gravity casting of aluminum, low-pressure casting of non-ferrous metals, topcoat over L-CA CG series.
Bonderite L-CA products are specifically tailored to the requirements of foundries—gravity casting, low-pressure casting, and die casting of aluminum, magnesium, zinc, and other non-ferrous metals. Water-based coatings (CG series) form insulating coatings with controlled thermal insulation performance. Release agent emulsions (CP series) are silicone-free for subsequent painting/bonding. Graphite dispersions (HKKS) offer high-temperature release without gas pores.
Store in the unopened original container in a dry, cool place — typically between +5 and +40 °C, see TDS for exact values. Protect water-based products from freezing. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Observe the expiry date on the packaging. Store aerosol sprays at a low temperature and in a well-ventilated area.
In the comparison table above, you will find related Bonderite products with different properties—different carrier media, different solid lubricants, different temperature ranges, or different application specializations. If you are unsure about the optimal choice, we would be happy to advise you—contact SILITECH with your specific application (substrate, temperature, load, processing workflow).
