Hydrophobic Fumed Silica

Inquiry

Alfa Chemistry is a trusted leader in the research, development, and production of organic silicon materials, offering a comprehensive portfolio of hydrophobic fumed silica products. These advanced materials are produced through a chemical reaction between hydrophilic silica and active silanes or silicone fluids, such as chlorosilanes, hexamethyldisilazane, and polydimethylsiloxane. The resulting hydrophobic fumed silica powder exhibits excellent water repellency, ensuring it remains insoluble in water. Our hydrophobic fumed silica delivers exceptional thixotropic properties in polar adhesives and sealants, including isocyanate resins, epoxy resins, silicone resins, polyurethane resins, and vinyl ester resins. Notably, it enhances the performance of silicone-based systems without excessive thickening. Additionally, its water resistance and ability to improve the flowability of powders make it invaluable for moisture-sensitive formulations. Moreover, our hydrophobic fumed silica offers superior storage stability and processability, and is widely employed as an anti-settling and anti-sagging agent for pigments, making it a versatile choice for various industrial applications.
