| This
is a hydrated amorphous synthetic Calcium Silicate. Due to its
amorphous nature it is safer to use than natural crystalline
forms. It also has an entirely different range of properties
compared to natural forms, i.e, higher surface area, oil absorption
and lower particle size and bulk density. |
| PRODUCTION
PROCESS |
| |
| Sodium
Silicate and Calcium Sulphate are reacted together under
precisely controlled conditions to give a slurry of Calcium
Silicate and Sodium Sulphate in solution. By stringent
control of parameters such as temperature, pH, electrolyte
concentration, agitation and reaction time, Silicate of
required structure and surface characteristics is produced. |
| |
| The
slurry is then filtered and washed with water to remove
sodium sulphate. The filter cake is subsequently dried
and then milled to the required particle size distribution.
Finally the silicate is collected, deaerated, and packed
at a controlled bulk density. |

particle size and surface characterstics
obtained through rigrous control of
the precipitation parameters, which
have been determined by intense research,
giving in turn an excellent oil absorption,
much higher than most commercially available
grades. |
| b. |
Processed
on a fully automated plant and thus
has high purity and is free from any
contaminants. |
| c. |
Excellent
optical whiteness. |
| d. |
Excellent
anti-caking and reinforcement potential.
|
| |
|
|
| APPLICATIONS |
| |
| a. |
As
an anti-caking and free
flow agents in chemicals,
Insecticides/Pesticides
and similar powdered materials
due to its excellent water/oil
absorption. |
| b. |
As
a reinforcing agent in rubber.
|
| c. |
As
a functional extender in
emulsion paints - ensures
film smoothness and acts
as a buffer against acidity
of the paint system. |
| d. |
As
a carrying agents in animal
feedstuff, insecticides
/ pesticides, chemicals
due to its very high water
absorption capacity, fine
particle size and low bulk
density. |
| e. |
To
control rheological properties
in a variety of application. |
|
| |
| OTHER
SUGGESTIVE APPLICATIONS
