Quanxu SS-826 Silica Matting Agent

SS-826 Silicon Dioxide

Recently, matte finish is becoming one of the most popular finish types in the flatting artist industry. People develop many different types of matting

agent like silica matting agent,wax,organic materials and fillers. Producing the matting agents should take different production technologies and treating

methods to achieve the expected matte results. Due to the wide using of matting agent, it is more important to choose a matting agent with good gloss

reduction effect and maintain acceptable viscosity for the printing press.

There are two main different process technologies used to produce silica: a thermal process, which produces pyrogenic silica,and a wet process, which

produces precipitated silica, silica gel or colloidal silica. Generally speaking, silica is hydrophilic after it is formed and can be treated with different chemicals

to make the surface hydrophobic to varying degrees.
