CAB-O-SIL® M-5

CAB-O-SIL® M-5 by Cabot is an untreated, medium surface fumed silica used in adhesives. It possesses high purity, aggregated & hydrophilic structure, submicron particle size and low bulk density. Provides thickening, thixotrophic (shear thinning)-, and anti-settling behavior in liquid systems. It offers dispersibility and improved powder flow. Provides increased hardness, tensile strength and elongation. CAB-O-SIL® M-5 is most efficient in non-polar to medium polarity systems. It is also used in the reinforcement of silicone & organic rubbers.
