EXCELLENCE THROUGH RESEARCH & DEVLOPMENT

Synthetic Silica Products and Kanpur Chemical Industries, units of MLA Group of Industries are one of the largest manufacturers of precipitated silica / hydrated silica / amorphous silica / silicic acid and silicates today, having complete vertical integration, rigid quality control standards and unique product properties. Not only have we stood the competition against multinationals, but are the leaders in several fronts, where through intensive research we have developed products with unmatched properties, by standards. We cater to every segment of the market with user specific products. We started operations in 1985 and have today grown into a company with an annual production of 4000 MT/Annum and an expediture as high as 10% of net profits on R & D annually.
 
We are the global leaders today in the manufacture of precipitated calcium silicates having following unique properties:
a. Very High Water / Oil Absorption
  Upto 600% has been achieved and efforts are in progress to achieve the 800% mark. Most competing products have water-absorption upto 300% maximum only.
b. Very Low Bulk Densities
  Upto 0.04 gm/cc has been achieved whereas competing products have 0.12 gm/cc minimum.
c. Very High Surface Areas
  Upto 600 m2/gm has been achieved.
   
PRODUCTION FACILITIES
 
Precipitation is carried out in microprocessor controlled batch reaction vessels, followed by filler-presses/vaccum filters and flash/spray driers and finally micro-mill with classifier for micronization wherever required.
 
APPLICATIONS (PRECIPITATED SILICAS)
UNISIL NK precipitated silicas having high absorption capacities can be used to provide one or several of the following properties:
               
Free - flow Anticaking Reinforcement Rheology Control
Thixotropy Flatting Insulation Suspension
Carrying Agent Matting Lightness Inert filler
               
PESTICIDES
 
For improvement in the suspension power and as a carrier for the active igredients, specially malathion, acephate and isoproton based formulations.   MLA Group
For improvement of free-flow characteristics and storage stability.
As a grinding auxillary.
     
Pesticides Industry is one of the largest consumers for UNSIL NK grades which Provide excellent results and improve quality.

 
FEEDSTUFFS & FOOD ITEMS
