RESIFA™ SUNSPHERE
RESIFA™ SUNSPHERE is a range of spherical, micro-porous silica particles designed for high-performance use across cosmetics and industrial applications. Composed of safe, amorphous silica derived from sodium silicate, these particles offer unique benefits through their perfectly spherical shape and controlled porosity.
Developed through the latest technology from AGC Inc. and AGC Si-Tech Co. Ltd., it is available in various grades, including porous, non-porous, and surface-treated options, allowing for precise selection based on application requirements.
Features
- Spherical Particle Shape: Particles do not cohere and roll freely, providing an excellent tactile feel and superior flowability.
- High Purity and Safety: Consists of amorphous silica, ensuring it is safe for a wide variety of applications.
- Controlled Porosity: Available in multiple grades, from highly porous for excellent absorption to non-porous for high tensile strength.
- High Absorption Capacity: The multi-porous structure offers excellent moisture and oil absorption capabilities.
Applications & Benefits
- Cosmetics & Personal Care
SUNSPHERE™ silica gels are used as additives in cosmetic and personal care applications such as make-up, skin care, oral care, hair care, deodorants and fragrances
- Carbon Capture
SUNSPHERE™ works as superior solid sorbent in point source carbon capture as well as direct air carbon capture (DAC).
- Resins & Polymer Compounds
When added to polymer formulations, SUNSPHERE™ silica gels offer anti blocking and improved dielectric insulation properties. SUNSPHERE™ also provides good UV and hardness properties as an additive for 3D resins.
- Catalyst Supports
SUNSPHERE™ is used as a catalyst support carrier particularly with polyolefin manufacturing processes.
- Paper Coating
By adding SUNSPHERE™ to paper coating formulations, surface hardness can be increased and matting effect improved.
- Coatings
SUNSPHERE™ silica gels are used to improve the matting effect in coatings, as a thickener for paints, and for specialised paints for electronic materials.
