Silicon Dioxide White Powder For PET Backlit Film

What material is used in matting?

Matting Agent is used on coating's surface to change the coating's surface properties. It is mainly used to decrease the 

surface glossy and it can also provide extra technical property. Basic material like waxes of polyethylene, polypropylene, 

carnauba wax, amide and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) can be used as matting agent. But the most common matting 

material is silica.

What are the material using types of matting technology?

Matting technology is also called as matte effect or matte treatment. It is mainly used for decrease the glossy of coating's 

surface to make it looks like matte. In different application industries, different materials of matting technologies might be 

different. Below are the common materials that are used in matting technologies.

1.Coating: In industries and in families, using coating with silica matting agent can help to decrease the glossy value. This 

type of coating can be applied in furnitures, walls, cars and etc.

2.Powder coating: During the surface treatments of metal, using silica matting agent can achieve the matte effect and this 

technology is usually used in outdoor.

3.Grinding material: In the machining process, the use of abrasive (such as sandpaper, grinding wheel, etc.) to grind metal or 

other materials to remove the gloss of the surface and achieve the matting effect.

4. Chemical treatment: Changing the materials' surface physical properties by chemical reaction to achieve

matte effect. For example, in glass processing, a specific chemical etching process can be used to make the glass surface 

less smooth and reduce reflection.

5. Embossing or texture: Texture is formed on materials such as plastic, leather, and 4. Fabric by pressing or engraving 

techniques to reduce gloss and increase visual effect.

6. Coated composite material : Combine a variety of materials, such as coating a layer of matting effect on a metal substrate, 

and control the gloss of the final product by adjusting the composition and thickness of the coating.
