Fillers and extenders require heightened visual, physical and chemical property control. Our precision-ground sizes range from 250 to 5 micron top size, and our ground and fine ground silicas are naturally bright white, low in moisture, chemically inert, and contain at least 99.5% pure SiO2. Their acid-resistant durability and chemical inertness make them an excellent product for epoxies, adhesives, coatings, mastics and sealants.
Paint
- Ground and fine ground silicas feature the tightest particle size distribution curves to allow high loading levels for the most consistent product
- Benefits include tougher paint film, enhanced durability, longer lasting, improved weathering, increased scrubbability, and better adhesion to substrates
Rubber
- Very high loading with minimal effect on viscosity and cut rate versus synthetic silicas
- Excellent semi-reinforcing filler
- Consistent color, purity and size distribution
Epoxy and Plastics
- Very high loading with minimal effect on viscosity and cut rate versus synthetic silicas
- Consistent color, purity and size distribution
Traffic Paint
- Our products feature high brightness and low oil absorption, making them perfect for traffic paint applications
Semi-Reinforcing
- Excellent inert semi-reinforcing fillers with high dielectric strength make our ground silica products perform well in electrical compounds
- Consistent pH and narrow size distributions allow very high loading with minimal effect on viscosity and cure rate
