SYLOID® 622 is a matting agent made from synthetic amorphous silica appearing as white free flowing powder.

SYLOID® 622 can mainly be used for matting of
• Thick film coatings
• Powder coatings
• Radiation curable systems
and as non-slip/anti-skid additive, e.g. in coil coatings.

SYLOID® AQ 800 silica is an additive for premium performance coating, especially for wood. It is a modified matting agent that enables the formulation of more environmentally friendly waterborne wood coatings with high chemical resistance and transparency that produce natural-looking, deep matte finishes on wood furniture, cabinets, and floors. Unlike typical silica matting agents, Grace’s SYLOID® AQ silicas have unique properties that achieve a highly matted surface with excellent chemical resistance, excellent clarity, and good scratch and metal marking resistance. In addition, SYLOID® AQ silicas are easier to disperse and produce less dusting than typical silica matting agent.

SYLOID® 161 is a matting agent from amorphous silica with special organic treatment, appearing as white free flowing powder. SYLOID® 161 is a medium porosity matting agent with appropriate matting efficiency. Due to its favourable particle size and organic treatment, following adequate dispersion it imparts excellent surface properties to the coating film.

Key Application: furniture coatings, decorative paints, wood stains, wood coatings, air and oven dried industrial coatings.
