Potassium Titanate
An arc stabiliser and slag former used in rutile and low-hydrogen electrode coatings.
Arc stability is what a welder actually feels when they strike an electrode, and potassium is the element most responsible for it — its low ionisation potential keeps the arc lit and smooth, particularly on AC.
Potassium titanate delivers that potassium together with titania, which contributes to slag formation and to the bead appearance and slag detachability that rutile electrodes are valued for.
