Surface Control
Surface control optimizes surface tension gradients during film formation. It prevents defects such as craters, fisheyes, and orange peel. This delivers smooth surfaces with excellent visual quality and functional performance.

SPHERILEX® DP-0110
SPHERILEX® DP-0110 has the smallest particle size within the SPHERILEX® family of products, making it ideal for thin film applications or systems where smaller and more transparent particles are preferred. In particular, SPHERILEX® DP-0110 is ideal for achieving burnish- and scrubresistant satin and eggshell finishes, and, when used in combination with silica matting agents, can enable deep matte, natural-looking wood coatings by improving the scratch, burnish, and mar resistance of the coating. It can also significantly improve the hardness of coil coatings.

SPHERILEX® DP-0111
SPHERILEX® DP-0111 is a precipitated amorphous (crystalline free) silica with unique spherical particle shape and very narrow particle size distribution.
Technologies
SPHERILEX® DP-0112
SPHERILEX® DP-0112 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.
