Silica is used as matting agent in printing inks, paint and coatings. During the production process Silica also improves free flow behaviour and prevents formation of coagulates.

Nano-sized Silica
DEUREX S 3001 M (S = Silica | 30 = 100 % Silica | 01 = 98 % < 01 µm | M = Micro-Sized)

• Very porous surface of silica
• Matting agent for extremely fine coatings and printing inks
• Particle size on nanoscale, 98 % < 1 µm

Micro-sized Silica
DEUREX S 3009 M (S = Silica | 30 = 100 % Silica | 09 = 98 % < 09 µm | M = Micro-Sized)
DEUREX S 3012 M (S = Silica | 30 = 100 % Silica | 12 = 98 % < 12 µm | M = Micro-Sized)
DEUREX S 3017 M (S = Silica | 30 = 100 % Silica | 17 = 98 % < 17 µm | M = Micro-Sized)

• Provide free flow
• Strong matting effects
• Various particle sizes for various applications from can and coil coatings to wood and industrial coatings, but also leather and film coatings

Silica coated polymers as matting agents
DEUREX S 3119 M (S = Silica | 31 = Silica double coated | 19 = 98 % < 19 µm | M = Micro-sized)
DEUREX S 3219 M (S = Silica | 32 = Silica fully coated | 19 = 98 % < 19 µm | M = Micro-sized)
DEUREX S 3319 M (S = Silica | 33 = Silica spot coated | 19 = 98 % < 19 µm | M = Micro-sized)
DEUREX S 3419 M (S = Silica | 34 = Silica eco coated | 19 = 98 % < 19 µm | M = Micro-sized)

• Silica coated polymers for industrial and wood coatings as well as printing inks
• Adapt matting effects with different stages of Silica coating
• double coated Silica DEUREX S 3119 M as for maximum matting effects
• eco coated Silica DEUREX S 3419 M for slight matting effects
