Corrosion Resistance

Features & Benefits

Fumed silica, structurally, has no gap among particles and is weakly agglomerated together with minimal internal surface area

Fumed silica is traditionally utilized for rheological purposes. The rheology control function includes thickening (bodying), thixotropy, anti-sag & maintain transparency.

Applications & Uses

Polyurethanes (PU),

Silicones,

Silyl-modified Polymers (SMP)

Industrial Additives End Use

Cement

Applications

FMSIL® R 972 is recommended for silicones, Silane modified polymers & PU systems.

Technical Details & Test Data

Processing

Fumed silica is manufactured via a dry process of combustion hydrolysis in the gas state. The primary particles consist of nano-size flakes.
