THICKENER SILICA- Silica Dioxide (ZI-185 type)

JSJ’S thickener silica is High whiteness, synthetic amorphous silica can reach more than 97%, and it can provide the toothpaste with white, fine and smooth appearance. Low iron content, can be as low as 100mg/kg, and has good compatibility with flavor and other effective ingredients, therefore, it can give toothpaste a stable quality. It meets the test requirements for silicon dioxide as described in the latest edition of United States Pharmacopoeia/National Formulary (USP/NF), for silica, dental type as described in the latest edition of the European Pharmacopoeia (EP).

Silica Dioxide (ZI-185 type)is a high pore volume silica gel with a large internal surface area. It has a strong affinity for moisture and organic based liquids. Silica Dioxide (ZI-185 type)can adsorb up to 1.6 ml of liquid per gram. Silica Dioxide (ZI-185 type)is particularly recommended as a glidant,tabletting-aid and carrier for pharmaceutical and personal care products. It has excellent compatibility with active ingredients.
