SILFOAM® SD 860 is an anhydrous silicone antifoam agent formulated with organofunctional silicone fluid and organic components. It exhibits excellent dispersibility in water. This antifoam agent is particularly suitable for use in organic systems that require a high level of compatibility with the antifoam agent. SILFOAM® SD 860 can effectively address challenges commonly encountered by silicones in various applications, including paints, adhesives, and water-miscible cooling lubricants.

Vertal® AF is a general-purpose talc/carbonate mineral additive, suitable for a broad range of applications, including polymers, ceramics, roofing, and asphalt. The benefits of Vertal® AF include improved dimensional stability, cross-flow mechanical performance, and flexural stiffness. It improves wet out of other additives and offers enhanced processability, improved crack and shrink resistance, and permeability reduction. The coarse particle size of Vertal® AF allows low dust, high bulk density, and minimum effects on viscosity of the melt/liquid media/carrier.

Barium Carbonate is also known as witherite and used in applications such as bricks, ceramics, glazes, cement, the chemical industry and as a flux. The formula is BaC0₃ and other names include carbonic acid, barium salt and barium monocarbonate. It is manufactured from barite (barium sulfate) and is a white powder that comes in several variations of grain sizes.

AMSol™ 50 is a high-purity, customizable colloidal silica products that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of a variety of applications.

AMSol™ 4015 is a high-purity, customizable colloidal silica products that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of a variety of applications.

AMSol™ 4012 is a high-purity, customizable colloidal silica products that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of a variety of applications.

SEPASIL® is for industrial use, mighty, workable silica sand deposits are of decisive importance. Nevertheless, chemical purity and constancy are not enough in order to apply silica directly as a raw material. In Quarzwerke plants silica sands are thoroughly prepared. The raw material has to pass exten-sive cleaning-, classification-, drying- and iron-free grinding processes in order to produce silica sands, flours and powders. For the production of silica flours and -powders with a defined grain size distribution separation processes are required in addition to iron-free grinding. Quarzwerke are able to produce silica powders with grain sizes down to 1 μm due to a fine-tuned combination of grind- and classification technology. Another refining step is the surface-treatment with silanes or silan-based substances which can be adjusted to the respective application.

Piq-White Ultra Premium Filler 30 is fine sized dry pulverized carbonate filler. Material is available in 50 lb. paper bags, palletized and stretch-wrapped, 1500 lb. mini bulk bags or in bulk. Piqua Minerals fillers are available with various average particle sizing for other filler applications.

MicroTalc® SR is a magnesium silicate mineral with a monoclinic crystal structure. It is characterized by its softness and platy or lamellar physical structure. When ground into a fine powder, this lamellar property gives a smooth, soapy feel.

44 High Solids Latex Additive is a Premium Solids Thin-Set Mortar Additive for use with Flextile 51 Premium Floor & Wall Thin-Set Mortar or with Flextile 53 Floor Mix for use in installing most ceramic tile and stone on properly prepared interior or exterior surfaces. The high latex solids content of Flextile 44 High Solids Thin-Set Mortar Additive increases safety margins on exterior applications where thermal expansion / contraction of tiles is a concern, where extreme freeze / thaw conditions exist, in water immersion applications and in other critical situations

Betol 39 T 3 is an inorganic binder based on modified sodium silicate with special additives.

Sil-cell® 43 has been found to be cost effective in the manufacturing of joint compounds, adhesives, auto body putty, cultured marble, wall patching compounds, stucco, ready mix gypsum plasters, resins, plastics and a variety of other composites. It can also be treated with unique proprietary surface coatings to modify the particle’s surface. In both organic and inorganic composites, these coupling agents improve adhesion.

Betol 47 T is an inorganic binder based on especially modified sodium silicate without any volatile organic additives.

Norchem Concrete Products Silica Fume is a very fine pozzolanic material, composed of amorphous silica produced by electric arc furnaces as a byproduct of the production of elemental silicon or ferro silicon alloys. When added to precast and ready-mixed concrete, silica fume produces high-performance, high-strength concrete with an increased life-span and improved structural economics. SILICA FUME is produced in conformance with the ASTM C-1240 specifications. The quality is controlled and monitored throughout the entire production process to ensure that it meets or exceeds specification requirements.

Madol Madol 45 is a pure white dolomite. The dolomitic fillers are dust From Operating dolomitic rock and are among other products when crushing.
