Demonstration conducted at SWERIM in Sweden.¹ The binding properties of a Borregaard lignosulfonate and two synthetic binders were tested on iron ore fines (particle size <0.063 mm). Borregaard's lignosulfonate exhibited the highest STS after 96 hours and demonstrated the fastest strength development.
