Chemical Materials Silicon Dioxide For Water Based Coatings

Feature

Silicon dioxide is found in sand, quartz or other natural minerals. It appears as solid state at the very first. When it is used into 

industrial, it is ground in a fine powder.And this is the normal state we often see. It appears as white powder and it has very 

good hand feeling. Usually,silicon dioxide is used for rubber,plastic, paints production with its high performances. Here, we 

are selling silicon dioxide for paint using.

As we all know, paints are classified as many types by its final usages. This type silica Matting Agent is used for water based 

coating. Water based coating belongs to an eco-friendly topcoat. Water based coating is mainly made of water and it is usually 

used as solvent to disperse the resin which is used for producing pigment or ink. The main function of water based coating is 

to prevent the protected substance from scratches and moisture. Water based coating is widely used due to its low content VOC. 

So it is usually used in woods and plastics. 

Then, what is the relationship between silicon dioxide and water based coating? There are four substances to made up coating. 

First is film-forming substance, second the pigment, third the solvent and the last is additive. Silicon dioxide is used as additive 

in water based coating. It has two improtant usages in water based coating. First, silicon dioxide can help the water based coating 

to avoid the discoloration becauese of the direct light. It is formed a transparent film on the surface of coating and this may create 

the matte effect. Second, silicon dioxide is a nature material that is odorless, non-toxic. This can not create any bad using 

experiences of water based coating.

In addition, there is a insperable realationship between silicon dioxide and water based coating. It must be an ideal choice to choose 

our silica matting agent to use in water based coating with its competitive price and high quality.
