The Ultimate FAQ Guide
Silica matting agents, the main raw material is amorphous silica; as an auxiliary agent for matting purposes, it can effectively solve the problem of excessive gloss in coating applications;
Silica matting agent has the following advantages: easy to disperse, good matting performance, low addition amount to bring strong matting, little interference to the transparency of the coating film; little influence on the mechanical and chemical properties of the coating film; In liquid coatings, silica matting agents bring good suspension, to make the goods be stored for a long time without hard precipitation; little influence on coating rheology; high chemical inertness.
And high chemical purity, insoluble in water, various organic solvents, and general acids and alkalis; its refractive index is 1.46, which is close to the refractive index of various coating resins of 1.4~1.5, so it has good transparency and does not affect the substrate and the color of the coating itself.
Silica matting agents are mainly divided into fumed silica and hydrate silica, and the hydrate silica has branches of precipitation method and gel method; the silica produced by different production methods has many differences in the application; At present, most of the silica used for matting on the market is produced by the precipitation method and the gel method.
