What is Colloidal Silica?

Colloidal silica is a stable dispersion of fine silica particles in a liquid medium, typically water. It is widely used in industries such as chemicals, electronics, ceramics, coatings, and polishing agents due to its high purity, thermal stability, and chemical resistance.

The quality of colloidal silica depends on particle size, uniformity, purity, pH, and stability, as well as compliance with industrial standards for applications such as catalysts, abrasives, and surface coatings.

How Colloidal Silica is Manufactured?

The manufacturing process generally involves:

1. Raw Material Procurement: Sourcing high-purity silica, water, stabilizing agents, and chemicals.

2. Preparation: Dissolving silica in alkali solution to form a uniform mixture.

3. Hydrolysis & Condensation: Controlled reactions convert the silica solution into nanoscale particles.

4. Stabilization: Adjusting pH and using dispersants to prevent particle aggregation.

5. Filtration & Purification: Removing impurities to ensure high-quality colloidal silica.

6. Quality Testing: Checking particle size distribution, concentration, pH, and stability.

7. Packaging & Storage: Filling in containers for bulk supply or industrial distribution.
