Overview
LUDOX® TM-40 contains 40% anionic silica with a particle size of 22 nanometers dispersed in water and stabilized with sodium ions. The particle size and electrostatic nature of LUDOX® TM-40 make it an excellent surface modifier. It is most often used as an anti-slip agent or frictionizer on paper, textiles and other materials.
Features & Benefits
- Anionic particles
- Intermediate particle size
- Narrow particle size distribution
- Low surface area
- Good binding strength and excellent stability in most applications
- Excellent surface modification performance
Problems Solved
Slipping of textiles during cutting and sewing that causes defects and production delays.
Applications
LUDOX® TM-40 can be used to reduce the sheen on textiles and to avoid seam slippage while cutting fabric or sewing.
The high purity and particle size of LUDOX® TM-40 make it an excellent abrasive for polishing slurries used in the manufacture of silicon wafers.
