Features Of Cabot CAB-O-SIL EH-5 Fumed Silica

  1. Highly pure, pyrogenic silica with low sodium and chloride content for demanding pharmaceutical and food-grade applications.

  2. Optimized surface chemistry for excellent dispersibility in aqueous and polar systems without requiring extensive shear.

  3. Consistent particle morphology and surface area (approximately 100 m²/g) ensuring reproducible rheology control.

  4. Non-toxic, non-hazardous, and compliant with FDA 21 CFR §173.37 and EU Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 for food contact use.

  5. Free-flowing, hydrophilic powder with low bulk density for easy handling and metering in continuous processing lines.

Typical Applications Of Cabot CAB-O-SIL EH-5 Fumed Silica

  1. Thickening and anti-settling agent in liquid pharmaceutical suspensions and syrups.

  2. Rheology modifier in high-purity food-grade sauces, dressings, and dairy alternatives.

  3. Stabilizer in industrial water-based coatings and adhesives requiring low ionic contamination.

  4. Free-flow aid in hygroscopic food powders such as instant beverages and nutritional supplements.

  5. Viscosity enhancer in medical device lubricants and silicone-based topical gels.
