Portafer M63 is produced from iron oxide, in which the main constituent is magnetite (Fe3O4). The standardized quality of Portafer® M 63 is guaranteed by an ISO 9001-certified quality management plan. The raw materials and production are closely monitored to ensure a constant quality with regard to their chemical composition and grain size. Portafer® M is the filler of choice for sound deadening in automotive and domestic applications due to its exceptionally high density. Portafer® M is used in some applications because of its ferro magnetic properties, such as magnetic paints and microwave heatable compounds.
