Industries Served

Bone ash material for manufacturers who need consistent performance across
metals, ceramics, and industrial processing.

Aluminum and Other Non-Ferrous Metals

Improves casting efficiency and finish quality by preventing metal adhesion, extending refractory life, and providing reliable, refractory protection—all with a safe, non-toxic formula.

Copper Processing

Improves pour quality, minimizes mold erosion, and streamlines cleanup — ensuring a smooth copper finish.

Cement & Construction Materials

Improves cement performance while reducing environmental impact by increasing early strength, enhancing workability, and minimizing micro-cracks. It is also reported to minimize ricochets in military and shooting range applications.

Ceramics Manufacturing

Improves porcelain quality with enhanced translucency, whiteness, and strength, while enabling lower-temperature sintering and greater durability.

Glazes & Finishing Materials

Functions as a flux/glass former, affecting glaze opacity and flow—improving movement into detailed areas and adding stiffness at low concentrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions about bone ash grades, applications, ordering, and shipping.

What is bone ash used for?

Bone ash is used primarily in the aluminum and other non-ferrous metals industry as a mold release agent, helping protect exposed surfaces and support cleaner casting operations.

Which bone ash grade should I choose?

Typically the majority of our customers find that the more cost effective Natural Bone Ash suites their requirements. Our Aluminum Grade Bone Ash is primarily used by customers who require a product that has better packing ability and retains its shape more readily.

Where is Murlin bone ash applied in casting operations?

Bone Ash is applied anywhere molten non-ferrous metals make contact as they do not wet dry bone ash. These include transfer troughs, spouts, pour points, filter boxes, dross skimming containers, damns, furnace tools and permanent casting molds. It can be applied dry, or as a slurry mixing two pounds of bone ash with a gallon of water. A glove or brush is used to apply dry whereas a brush or a spray gun can be used to apply the slurry. It is recommended to use the slurry pretreatment on a warm surface to allow it to dry completely. Subsequent coatings of dry bone ash can be applied without additional slurry pretreatment.

What are the main benefits of using bone ash vs other coating materials?

  1. Cost-effective.
  2. Provides a safety barrier and a “super plus” in overall housekeeping in a casting operation.
  3. Improves the appearance of coated items.
  4. Reliable leak-proof joints and dams.
  5. It is cleaner; there is no danger of contamination from impurities such as iron which may be present in other coating materials.
  6. It is a more efficient coating, covering up to 3 times more than other coating materials.
  7. Murlin Bone Ash works into the pores of the refractory, providing better coating adhesion.
  8. More resistant to wetting, enabling coated materials to last longer.

Do you provide a Certificate of Analysis (COA)?

Yes. A COA can be provided upon request.

How do I request pricing or place an order?

Please click on “request a quote” and we will respond promptly.

Do you ship orders promptly?

We are typically able to release orders the week they are received. For larger orders please contact us for release details.

Is Murlin bone ash safe to handle?

Murlin Bone Ash is a natural product consisting of the remaining ash of burnt bovine and porcine bones. It is safe to handle and non-hazardous and non-toxic.

Where do you ship?

Our customers are found worldwide.
