Anti Settling Agent Kunsil FS-200 (Fumed Silica):

The use of Kunsil FS-200 (Fumed Silica) as an anti-settling agent for pigments and fillers in paints and coatings is the oldest application in this industry. The desired anti-settling effect is generally accompanied by an increase in viscosity and the associated yield value.

The selection of Kunsil FS-200 (Fumed Silica) with the best suspension effect is dependent on the usual factors, such as the binder system, the concentration level and other additives and especially on the particular type of pigment and filler.

Kunsil FS-200 (Fumed Silica) is not only a virtually indispensable component in zinc dust paints, but it has also been proven successful in anti-corrosive paints containing alkaline-earth metal chromates, hydrogen phosphates, lead silicates and alkaline-earth metal borates.
