Matting
Matting enables precise adjustment of surface gloss without compromising film integrity. A controlled micro‑rough surface structure delivers uniform light scattering. This allows consistent matte appearance and attractive surface aesthetics.

SPHERILEX® DP-0115
SPHERILEX® DP-0115 has larger particle size, which is beneficial for properties like burnish and scrub resistance and may produce some degree of matting effect in certain systems, such as thin film applications and waterborne clear finishes.

SPHERILEX® DP-0117
SPHERILEX® DP-0117 represents the largest particle size within the SPHERILEX® family of silicas. It provides a significant matting effect in all coatings and is particularly useful in powder coatings where it provides both matting and improvements to the coating's durability. SPHERILEX® DP-0117 also provides excellent wet scrub, burnish, scuff, stain, and mar resistance in flat (matte) architectural coatings and thicker film liquid coatings containing higher loadings of other fillers.
