SOLESPHERE™ microsphere silica gels are environmentally safe, non-nanoparticle, non-plastic, non-petroleum ingredients that enhance the performance of skincare and cosmetics. They can be used in oil-in-water, water-in-oil and anhydrous formulations to provide UV boost, reduce greasiness and stickiness, minimize pores, absorb oil and perspiration, improve spreadability and provide a matte appearance.

AGC offers a wide range of silica products – under the name SUNSPERA™ –  for catalyst supports. These catalyst supports play an important role in conjunction with the catalyst for polyolefin polymerization and the synthesis of organic compounds. When manufacturing polyethylene and polypropylene, the properties of SUNSPERA silica gel have a significant effect on the polymerization process and properties of the finished polymer. SUNSPERA particles' pore structure, spherical shape and particle distribution are precisely defined. Using them as catalyst supports improves the morphology and increases the bulk density of the finished polymer resin. It also improves productivity. The SUNSPERA product line has grades suitable for liquid phase/slurry processes and gas phase processes.
