aSuprtech specialty chemicals · Colloidal silica

Colloidal silica, made to your specification.

Aqueous colloidal silica for catalysts, coatings and pigments. Tell us the particle size, solids, pH and impurity limits you need. We match the grade you use today or tailor a new one, and send you a free sample to test.

Product line · Colloidal silica

Three families, one specification sheet per grade

Ultra-high purity

Alkoxide (Stöber) process

Monodisperse spherical particles with sodium below 3 ppm and other trace metals below ICP-MS detection. For high-end catalysts, anti-reflective coatings and electronic materials.

High purity

Ion exchange with added purification

Potassium-stabilized grades at about 40% solids with low trace metals. For precision polishing, silica-supported catalysts and optical coatings.

Standard

Six stabilization types

Sodium, ammonium, acidic, neutral, alumina-modified and silane-modified, from 5 to 110 nm. For catalyst binders, coatings, pigments, refractories and paper.

Applications

Built around the catalyst and coatings bench

Catalysts

  • Binder for zeolite and molecular-sieve extrudates and spheres
  • Washcoat binder for honeycomb supports (automotive, VOC, SCR)
  • Silica source for supported hydrogenation and oxidation catalysts

Key specs: Na content, particle size, binding strength

Coatings

  • Scratch and abrasion resistance in waterborne wood and clear coats
  • Anti-reflective and hydrophilic coatings
  • Sol-gel, non-stick, inorganic and heat-resistant coatings

Key specs: resin compatibility, clarity, pH, surface modification

Pigments

  • Silica surface treatment for better dispersion and weather resistance
  • Inkjet and photo-paper receptive coatings

Key specs: particle size, charge (anionic or cationic), purity

Refractories, casting and paper

  • Binder for refractories and investment casting shells
  • Retention aid and anti-slip coatings for paper

Key specs: solids, stability, cost per kg of SiO₂

Custom grades

From your spec sheet to a locked specification

Most customers start by sending the grade they use today. We match it, or adjust particle size, solids, pH, stabilizer and impurity limits to fit your process.

Share your target

Application, current grade if any, and the parameters that matter to you.

Get a technical proposal

We confirm whether an existing grade fits or a tailored grade is needed, with a sample date.

Test a free sample

Each sample ships with a COA and particle-size report. SEM images on request.

Fine-tune and lock

We adjust from your test results, then fix the grade in a written specification for every batch.

Quality

Every batch is measured, documented and retained

  • COAIssued for every batch against the agreed specification.
  • Trace metalsICP-MS for Na, Fe, Al, Ca, K and other elements.
  • Particle sizeDynamic light scattering, with polydispersity index.
  • Retained samplesKept for every batch so any question can be traced.
  • Change controlWritten notice before any change in raw materials or process.

Storage

Keep from freezing

Store between 5 and 35 °C. Frozen colloidal silica gels irreversibly, so we plan winter shipments to avoid low temperatures.
