Application
hydrophilic fumed silica is widely used to modify the viscosity and rheology of liquids. It is used in paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and inks.
• HTV and RTV silicone rubber
• Adhesives and sealants
• Paints, coatings and pigments
• Printing inks
• Cable compounds
• Unsaturated polyester resins, laminated resins and Gel coat
Fumed silica is an essential additive in numerous industries , such as high surface area, low density, and excellent rheological control. Whether used as a thickening agent, reinforcing filler, or rheology modifier. With its ability to improve viscosity, flow properties, and stability, fumed silica remains a crucial component in industrial applications.
