Key Properties
  • SPHERILEX® DP-0112 is available with different particle sizes, but all grades are based on a new patented synthesis process that directly controls particle morphology during the precipitation step. As a result, this new range of silica products provides a unique balance ofperformance benefits.
  • SPHERILEX® DP-0112 has larger particle size, which is beneficial for properties like burnish and scrub resistance and may produce some degree of matting effect in certain systems, such as thin film applications and waterborne clear finishes.

Storage Conditions

SPHERILEX® DP-0112 is best used within 24 months of its manufacture. Evonik precipitated silica products are extremely chemically stable. However, precipitated silicas, including this product, can absorb moisture and/or volatile organic compounds from the surrounding atmosphere. Therefore, we recommend storage in original sealed packaging and in a dry, cool place and removed from volatile organic substances.
