Cellulose Powder
Cellulose is used in multiple industrial applications and cellulose fibers in coatings of welding electrode are one of the oldest application for these types of fillers. It improves the welding properties of the electrodes depending upon the type and structure of the coating.
A cellulosic electrode covering consists of naturally occurring minerals, metallic oxides, and organic compounds where cellulose (wood pulp) is the primary constituent, normally 30-40% of the coating. In their formation, the mixture of metal oxides and organic materials are bonded on the core wire with the help of binders. These coatings on melting give sound weld protection along with the formation of slag. Besides some limitation on their usage, some factors make them exceptional in intricate applications.
