Fumed silica is a very fine amorphous silica, molecular formula SiO2 it is a white fluffy powder, porous, non-toxic, tasteless and pollution-free, high temperature resistance, and it has chemical inertia. Composed of spherical primary particles. The primary particle **** has an average diameter of 40nm and a minimum diameter of 7nm. If the primary particles of the 1 gram 200 scale were arranged in a chain next to each other, it would be about 17 times the average distance between the Earth and the moon. The size of the primary particle can be further illustrated by another example: the ratio of the diameter of the primary particle to the diameter of a football for 200-ratio meter fumed silica is equivalent to the ratio of the diameter of a football to the diameter of the earth. Primary particles do not exist in isolation, they form bodies and agglomerates. The behavior in different applications is determined by the size of the primary particle and the distribution of the agglomerates in the application system. Unlike precipitation, dioxygen does not have a definite size of the agglomerates. With the increase of primary particle size, the particle size distribution curve widens.
Hydrophobic fumed silica is widely used in various fields such as wastewater treatment, pharmaceuticals, food, feed, textiles, electronics, coatings, and daily necessities. Specifically, hydrophobic fumed silica exhibits high adsorption capacity, effectively removing heavy metal ions, pigments, organic compounds, and other organic and inorganic substances.
