Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Surface treatment agent:
Amorphous Silicon Dioxide - organic treatment (silanized)
External layer:
hydrophilic
Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.

Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.

#2
Surface treatment agent:
Amorphous Silicon Dioxide - organic treatment (silanized)
External layer:
hydrophilic
Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.
Percentage of coverage of particle surface, %:

Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.
