Description
Cork Powder Moldcork & Gatecoat Compounds, developed by Moldcor International, are specialized binderless cork-based materials engineered for use in battery plate and grid casting processes.
The MCD 300 (Moldcork) grade is available in fine powder form, ensuring uniform coating and effective mold release during casting. It helps prevent metal adhesion and improves the surface quality of cast plates, thereby reducing rework and enhancing production efficiency.
The MCD 500 (Moldgate) grade, supplied in liquid form, is a ready-to-apply compound designed to deliver consistent coating performance, reduced oxidation, and clean separation of grids from the mold.
Both products are binderless, meaning they leave minimal residue, provide excellent heat resistance, and maintain mold cleanliness — resulting in smoother production cycles and superior casting precision.
With their proven reliability, Moldcor International’s MCD 300 and MCD 500 grades are widely trusted by battery manufacturers for high-quality plate casting and improved operational efficiency.
