This Food Grade Fumed Silica (also known as Pyrogenic Silica) is a high-performance nano-scale food additive produced via premium fumed (pyrogenic) process. Using high-purity siloxane as raw material, it is synthesized through high-temperature hydrolysis process, resulting in 100% amorphous nano-scale silicon dioxide with a minimum purity of 99.8%. With nano-scale primary particle size, it features ultra-high specific surface area, and delivers outstanding dispersibility, thickening performance, thixotropy, anti-caking and flow aid properties. The product is odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, and fully compliant with global food standards including GB 2760, FDA, EU 1333/2008. It is ideally suited for special processing scenarios such as high-end liquid food, paste food, and ultra-fine powdered food, serving as the benchmark product for high-performance food additives.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the core difference between fumed silica and precipitated silica?

A: Fumed silica has nano-scale primary particle size and higher specific surface area, with excellent thickening, thixotropy and anti-settling properties, which far exceed precipitated silica products in liquid and paste food systems. Meanwhile, the ultra-fine powder has better flow aid and dispersion effects in high-end powdered foods, and is suitable for special and high-end food processing scenarios.

Q: Is there a difference between hydrophilic and hydrophobic grades, and what scenarios are they suitable for?

A: Yes. We can provide both hydrophilic and hydrophobic food grade fumed silica. Hydrophilic grade is suitable for water-based systems such as beverages, jams and powdered foods; hydrophobic grade is suitable for oil and high-oil systems such as chocolate, cream and fried foods. Customers can choose according to their product system.

Q: Can this product replace imported fumed silica brands?

A: Yes. The parameters and performance of this product are fully benchmarked against food grade fumed silica from global first-tier brands such as Evonik and Wacker, enabling seamless replacement without adjusting the production process. Meanwhile, it has higher cost performance, and free samples are available for comparative testing.
