Properties
- Physical Form
- Product Properties
- Hydrophobic component for thickening and reinforcement of RTV-1 pack silicone sealants
- Improves shelf-life of silicone sealants
- Water resistant, for thickening and hydrophobising of liquid systems
- Rheology control of (complex) liquid systems
- For use in coatings as anti-settling agent, for pigment stabilization and improvement of corrosion protection
- Improves hydrophobicity and rheology of offset printing inks
- Improvement and maintenance of free flow and anti- caking characteristics of powders
- Due to large surface area improved thickening and thixotropic effect as well as transparency
