Ion Exchange Silica Anti-Corrosive Pigment For Coil Coatings

To meet these environmental challenges to the industry, Quanxu developed the SKYSIL silica products, a range of highly

effective, non-toxic, heavy metal free anti-corro- sive ion exchange pigments. SKYSIL silica products are based on ion-

exchanged amorphous silica and have been developed as a replacement for toxic anti-corrosive pigments like zinc 

chromate or strontium chromate as well as an alternative for heavy metal containing zinc phosphate based pigments. 

SKYSIL silica products have been successfully used in the marketplace for over 20 years and have an industry-established 

track record of delivering optimum anti-corrosion performance as a substitute to chromate based products.

Silicon dioxide, also known as silica, is commonly used as an anti-corrosive pigment in various applications. It is a natural 

mineral that is chemically inert, non-toxic, and stable, which makes it an excellent material for anti-corrosion coatings.
Silicon dioxide forms a protective layer on the surface of the material, preventing moisture and other corrosive substances 

from penetrating and causing damage. It also has high thermal stability and resistance to UV radiation, which further enhances 

its anti-corrosion properties.

In addition to its anti-corrosive properties, silicon dioxide also improves the adhesion and durability of the coating. It can be 

used in a variety of applications, including automotive coatings, industrial coatings, marine coatings, and protective coatings for infrastructure.
Silicon dioxide pigments are available in various forms, including powders, granules, and nano-sized particles. The choice of form depends on the specific application and desired properties of the coating.
Overall, silicon dioxide is a versatile and effective anti-corrosive pigment that can significantly extend the lifespan of materials 

and reduce maintenance costs.

USING TIPS:
* Recommend dosage is 3%-8%.  (Please adjust the dosage according to the actual product.)                                       

* As different formulations and conditions, suggest the user to test and make sure the dosage before using.
