AL2Chem Specialties is a full service supplier of treated and untreated grades of amorphous fumed silica, precipitated silicas and flatting agents.

Products

• Fumed Silicas – Fumed silica’s unique manufacturing process produces a very high purity type of silica with nano size primary particles, a fluffy white powder that is an amorphous and colloidal form of silica. These characteristics impart a wide range of benefits to formulations from thickening and reinforcement to free flow and anti-settling.
• Flatting Agents – Flatting agents are silicas designed to modify the surface characteristics of paints and coatings to reduce gloss. They are highly dispersible and provide good leveling and suspension control, particularly the wax treated grades.
• Precipitated Silicas – Precipitated silica is produced in a wet chemical process and the resulting amorphous products have a wide range of applications from thickening and reinforcement to free-flow and abrasion. They are highly absorptive, improve mechanical properties, and provide unique solutions for your formulating needs.
