Silicon Dioxide Matting Agent Used In Wood Paints

Description 

Silicon dioxide, also known as silica, is a commonly used Matting Agent in wood paints. It is a white, powdery substance 

that is added to paint formulations to reduce gloss and create a matte or satin finish.

Wood paints typically contain binders, pigments, solvents, and additives. The addition of silicon dioxide as a matting agent 

helps to control the level of gloss by scattering light and reducing the reflection off the painted surface. This results in a more 

subdued, matte appearance.

Silicon dioxide matting agents are available in different particle sizes, allowing for different levels of matting effect. Finer 

particles provide a smoother, satin finish, while larger particles create a more pronounced matte appearance.

In addition to its matting properties, silicon dioxide also offers other benefits in wood paints. It can improve the scratch resistance 

and durability of the paint film, as well as enhance the flow and leveling characteristics during application.

Overall, silicon dioxide matting agents are commonly used in wood paints to achieve the desired level of gloss and create a 

visually appealing finish on wooden surfaces.

Characters

1. Easy to Disperse: Advanced rubbing technology makes narrower distribution of diameter of granules, so that matting 

agent can be easily added in any production procedure and can be easily dispersed, which saves the processing time.

2. High Matting Effect. Careful design matting agent physical properties and the performance, high pore volume and fine 

controlled particle size and particle size distribution makes high matting efficiency.

3. Excellent transparency: High purity of silica product ensures that refractive index can inosculate with resin index.
