Aktisil

The Aktisil grades, i.e. activated Sillitins, are produced by modifying the surface of Neuburg Siliceous Earth with chemicals, specifically with selected silanes. Several different grades have been developed in order to always ensure optimum coupling between filler and polymer.

In comparison with untreated Neuburg Siliceous Earth, the Aktisil grades, through improved wetting by the polymer, offer manifold benefits in different fields of application:

  • Disperse more readily
  • Improved rheological properties
  • Improved coating resistance
  • Increased anti-corrosion properties

(*) The hydrophobic surface of the Aktisil PF 777 allows for optimal wetting because of the interaction between the functional filler and the polymer.
