It may be used in simple and complex liquid, silicon rubber, adhesives and sealants, greases, batteries, agrochemicals, etc.
Uses
May be used for increasing the viscosity, pseudoplasticity and thixotropy of a wide range of liquid systems.
Benefits
• Increases viscosity
• Does not alter natural colour of powder formulations
• Anti-blocking agent for PET films.
• Versatile
Usage Rate
The usage for this product depends on the nature of the formulation, thus there is no exact recommended concentration.
Strengths
Provides effective free flow and anti-caking behaviour.
Caution
Silicon Dioxide Fumed (Aerosil) also known as pyrogenic silica, is used as a free-flow and anti-caking agent to improve powder properties The resulting powder has an extremely low bulk density and high surface area. It is also used as viscosity increasing agent to thicken and thixotropic liquids and as a desiccant for moisture-sensitive actives, and an anti-settling, thickening, and anti-sagging agent.
