Fumed silica, such as Erosil-NV/200, is a type of amorphous, nano-sized silica produced by the vapor-phase hydrolysis of silicon compounds.
- Fumed Silica (Erosil) optimizes seed germination rates when incorporated into seed coatings. Hydrophilic and hydrophobic fumed silica can increase or decrease, respectively, the rate at which water penetrates the seed coating, thus optimizing germination rates and crop yield. It also reduces waste by protecting seed when stored in areas with high moisture or elevated humidity.
- Fumed Silica (Erosil) provides powder free-flow and anti-caking properties when added to dry fertilizer. Hydrophilic fumed silica enables easy dispersion of powder-based fertilizer or crop production inputs in water, so that active ingredients are evenly applied over farmland.
- Fumed Silica (Erosil) prevents settling and promotes long-term suspension of active ingredients in water- and oil-based dispersions. By promoting suspension and stabilizing emulsions, fumed silica enables the application of a consistent concentration of active ingredients to farmland.
Key benefits of fumed silica additives include:
Enhancing seed germination and reducing spoilage during stocking and storage
Providing free-flow and anti-caking properties in dry fertilizers
Ensuring that active ingredients stay evenly suspended in liquid dispersions
It helps to improve safe handling of the active ingredients
It converts additives or actives that usually appear as liquid or pasty substance into free flowing powders.
It acts as rheology modifier for liquid pesticide formulations
It is used in solid formulations as flow aid, anti-caking aid, milling aid and as carrier for liquid active ingredients.
It improves the free flow and caking properties of wet table powders, granules, water dispersible granules, granulated fertilizer and seed treatment formulations.
They also improve drying of the coated seeds and their free flow properties
