Precise Quality Control: IOTA Precipitated Silica for Coatings Sets a New Industry Standard

In the development of industries such as coatings, inks, and printing, high-quality raw materials are key to improving product performance. IOTA’s series of precipitated silica for coatings offers precise technical specifications and outstanding performance, delivering innovative solutions across sectors and becoming the go-to choice for companies looking to enhance their competitive edge.

From a technical standpoint, models such as FINE SIL516, FINE SIL300, FINE SIL300A, and FINE SIL300B all feature a high SiO₂ (dry basis) content of ≥98%. Loss on ignition and moisture content are strictly controlled within 4–6% and 3–5%, respectively, ensuring product stability and reliability. Each model is tailored to specific needs in terms of surface area, pH value, oil absorption, and particle size, addressing the detailed requirements of different industries. For instance, FINE SIL516 has a surface area of up to 200 m²/g and a particle size of just 3 μm. With excellent adsorption and dispersibility, it performs exceptionally well in hot stamping foil, coatings, and ink applications, functioning as an adsorbent, anti-settling agent, and thickener — even serving as a cost-effective alternative to diatomaceous earth in primers.

The FINE SIL300 series of matting agents also stands out. Produced via a sol-gel process, FINE SIL300 features high hardness, excellent dispersibility, and an ideal refractive index, making it ideal for paints and coatings with a superior matting effect. FINE SIL300A is specially designed for furniture coatings and leather applications, offering outstanding abrasion and scratch resistance along with excellent dispersion and suspension properties to enhance film quality. FINE SIL300B, developed specifically for inkjet media and photo paper, uses a large-pore structure and strong ink absorption to greatly improve print quality and production efficiency.

The advantages of IOTA precipitated silica for coatings don’t stop there. It enables a wide range of matting effects — from semi-matte to soft matte to full matte — to create various desired surface textures. Thanks to its superior dispersibility, it can be easily dispersed below 15 μm using a standard high-speed disperser. The resulting coating films are not only highly transparent but also smooth, wear-resistant, and impact-resistant. Additionally, it does not affect the drying, storage, or curing of paints, and its excellent anti-settling properties ensure long-term formulation stability.

In terms of application, a standard high-speed disperser is all that’s needed to fully disperse the matting agent into the coating system. While blade diameter and container size may influence dispersion efficiency, the excellent performance of IOTA products ensures easy handling and ideal production results. Whether you are a manufacturer striving for top-tier quality or a research team focused on innovation, IOTA precipitated silica for coatings, with its unique performance and reliable quality, will help you stand out in the industry and embark on a new journey of quality advancement.
