Levasil CB17 is an alkaline, aqueous dispersion of colloidal silica that is approximately 40% solids by weight. The silica dispersion is sodium stabilized and the amorphous silica particles carry a negative surface charge. The silica particles are discrete, have a smooth, spherical shape, and are present in a wide particle size distribution. The physical appearance of the dispersion is an opalescent liquid, slightly more viscous than water. Levasil CB17 is produced for world-wide distribution. CAS number 7631-86-9 Applications: Levasil CB17 is a specialty product designed primarily for use in concrete to control stability, segregation and water loss. Information provided by Nouryon |
