Conventional precipitated silica has the challenge of being difficult to disperse into rubber as the specific surface area increases, making it hard to extract reinforcement performance equivalent to the specific surface area. However, Nipsil MR and SDR achieve a balance of "high specific surface area" and "high dispersion" through unique synthesis technology, significantly improving rubber reinforcement performance. By incorporating Nipsil MR and SDR into various types of rubber, it demonstrates effectiveness not only for tires but also for industrial rubber applications that require tear strength, elongation, and abrasion resistance (such as belts and rollers). Additionally, due to its high reinforcement capability, it can be used as a substitute for carbon black, contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us via the link below.*

The "Nipsil WE Series" is a microparticle-type matting agent silica that excels in dispersion within water-based paints. Our product, Nipsil special silica, is widely used as a matting agent for paints; however, in water-based paints, particularly in O/W emulsion paints, the silica particles tend to agglomerate and cannot disperse adequately, resulting in residues on the surface of the paint film. The WE series improves wettability and dispersion in water-based paints through our unique technology, enabling "uniform dispersion in a short time." Additionally, it disperses uniformly even when added directly to water-based paints, eliminating the need for pre-dispersion. By incorporating the WE series, a smooth matting paint film can be achieved. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us via the link below.*

"Nipsil SBY-80" is a silica for matting agents that controls the particle size and the strength of the aggregation structure unique to gel method silica, making it possible to improve the scratch resistance and wear resistance of coatings. It is particularly used in topcoat paints that require wear and scratch resistance, such as flooring materials (outdoor and indoor). We also offer grades with different particle sizes and hydrophilic surface types, so please contact us for more details via our website. *For more information, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us through the link below.
