Fumed silica is also known as pyrogenic silica because it is produced in flame pyrolysis of silicon tetrachloride or from quartz sand vaporized in a 3000 °C electric arc. Fumed Silica consists of microscopic droplets of amorphous silica fused into br...…
Fumed silica is a universal thickening agent and an anticaking agent (free-flow agent) in powders. Like silica gel, it serves as a desiccant. It is used in cosmetics for its light-diffusing properties. It is used as a light abrasive in products like ...…
Fumed silica is an artificial substance, so it’s no surprise that it’s known by multiple names—Diatomaceous earth, Diatomaceous silica, Diatomite, Silicon dioxide (amorphous), and Vitreous silica, at least. In fact, before 1989, its official name was...…
The benefits of fumed silica and silica fume in the manufacturing and construction industries are well known. While the two terms seem similar, the products have apparent differences. Unfortunately, most people use the terms interchangeably. Here is ...…
What is Fumed Silica?Fumed Silica is a form of silicon dioxide, or silicon, with the molecular formula SiO2 and a molecular weight of 60.0843 g/mol. Fumed silica is also known as pyrogenic silica. It is an odorless white powder consisting of droplets...…
The Aerosil® 200 silica used by the invention, with a BET surface area, differs from the known Aerosil® 300, which has a surface area of 300 m2/g, not only in the surface size but also in the average primary particle size. The Aerosil® 300 has an ave...…
The prior art can only prevent deagglomeration if the hydrophilic silica is mixed with 3% by weight of hydrophobic silica and if this mixture is ground utilizing an air-jet mill or a pinned-disc mill (EP 0 076 377 B1). In this case, for a fumed silic...…
A known procedure is to render fumed silica hydrophobic, grind it in a pinned-disc mill, and then classify it (U.S. 2004/0110077 A1). This known silica is used as an external additive in toner mixtures. Reducing the agglomerate size by dispersing out...…
The primary particles and aggregates of a fumed silica agglomerate form larger assemblies whose size is generally in inverse proportion to the primary particle size or proportion to the specific surface area. The agglomerate size also increases with ...…
Fumed silica having a BET surface area of 200±15 m2/g, a goniometer value of less than 30 μm, and a median value by PCS of 65 to 85 nm are prepared by grinding a fumed silica having a surface area of 200±25 m2/g, and silicone rubber containing this s...…
What is Fumed silica?Fumed silica (pyrogenic silica and silicon dioxide) is one of the lightest substances known. Fumed silicas are very light and fluffy and have bulk densities of 3 lbs/cu ft (38 kg/cu m). Silicon metals and alloys are produced in e...…
Fumed silica-based ultra-high-purity synthetic quartz powder was developed via the sol–gel process to apply to quartz wares and quartz crucibles for use in advanced semiconductor processes. The process conditions of preparing potassium silicate solut...…
What is Titanium diboride?Titanium Diboride (TiB2) is a hard material with high strength and wear resistance at elevated temperatures. The high density, elastic modulus, and compressive strength have led to its use in armor components. It is unaffect...…
WhatsApp has launched a new privacy measure that hides your last seen status with people you dont know or have never talked to in the app (via WABetaInfo). Previously, WhatsApp set the feature to everyone by default, allowing anyone on Whats…
Moreover, SiO2 nanoparticles have been reported to induce activation of the NLRP3/ASC inflammasome and the secretion of inflammatory cytokines in macrophages [18,22]. These findings suggest that ingested SiO2 nanoparticles can potentially increase in...…
