Silicones & Silicates

Silicon chemistry contributes flow control, anti-caking, thermal stability and sensory performance in ways carbon chemistry cannot match. Fumed silica grades including Aerosil 200 govern rheology in coatings and adhesives, dimethicone and cyclopentasiloxane deliver silky skin feel in personal care, and silicate salts provide alkalinity and binding in detergents and construction.

SoleChem supplies both fumed and precipitated silica alongside liquid silicones, with surface-area and viscosity specifications stated for every grade. Light, bulky powders are packed to minimise freight cost per kilogram, and samples are available so formulators can verify rheological behaviour before scaling up.
