Synthetic Amorphous Silicate Applications
Silicates have been used in a wide variety of consumer and industrial applications for many decades.
Industrial applications for silicates include use as a raw material for silica gel production, as corrosion inhibitors and anti-scaling agents, dust binding agents, flame-retardants, flotation agents, impregnation agents, stabilizers, and viscosity adjustors. The chemical activity of soluble silicates makes them valuable in soil solidification and in catalyst production.
Industrial
Silicates are used as ingredients in a wide range of consumer product applications including adhesives, binding agents and sealants, water treatment, construction materials, fabrics, textiles and apparel, glass and ceramic products, lubricants, greases, paintings and coatings, paper products, photographic and reprographic products, soaps and detergents, and hair coloring preparations.
