Description
AEROSIL® 200 is a hydrophilic fumed silica with a specific surface area of 200 m2/g. AEROSIL® fumed silica effectively prevents moistening and caking of the peroxo and persulfate salts usually used in bleaching powders. This results in improved free-flow properties even after extended storage. This fumed silica can also be used as a thickening and stabilizing agents in bleaching creams.
In hair dyes, AEROSIL® fumed silica prevents a premature reaction and caking of powdered colorant components. It is particularly effective as a drying agent in a concentration of up to 4.0 percent w/w.
In hair conditioners, hydrophilic AEROSIL® types such as AEROSIL® 200 and AEROSIL® 300, can help increase the volume of the hair, counteracting the “flattening” effect of the conditioning agents.
