Wide Usage Silicon Dioxide Powder For Canvas Prints

What are the key indicators of silica for coatings?

Silica is used in architectural coatings specifically in architectural coatings for buildings, vehicles, locomotives and ships, and is also used

as a coloring agent in dark gray and other colors of paints. Silica has high brightness and coloring, and its price is stable, so it is an indispensable

coloring agent in the coating industry. At present, most architectural coatings use silica as a coating product.

1. Silica brightness

Brightness is the primary indicator of silica for coatings. When used for coloring of gray-black architectural coatings, such as gray-black vehicle

paint, the higher the brightness of the silica used, the better. When silica is used for coloring, too much melanin and too little addition can easily

cause different batches of paint products to have color cast, so it is required to use silica with lower brightness.

2. Silica coloring power

Coloring power (tinting strength) is the coloring ability of silica when white or colorful colorants and silica are mixed. That is, the degree to which silica

increases the light absorption effect of the mixed material system. This characteristic lies in the ratio of silica to color and the characteristics of silica.

When the ratio is constant, the coloring ability of a certain silica is its coloring strength, which is called coloring power in the field of architectural coatings.

When the silica particle size is small and the structure is low, the coloring power is high, but when the particle size is less than 20nm, the coloring ability

will no longer increase, or even decrease.

3. Silica dispersion and dispersion reliability

The aggregate size of silica used in paint is generally between 20 and hundreds of nanometers, which is not easy to disperse in paint. The dispersion of silica in paint

is poor, which greatly interferes with the properties of the paint. In addition, when silica is used in paint, especially when mixed with other pigments such as titanium

dioxide, due to the differences in density, aggregate pore size, shape and surface chemical properties, silica is easy to cause a sloping plate sedimentation phenomenon,

which affects the dispersion reliability of the paint.

ECO Solvent Canvas with Silica Matting Agent

Super wide eco-solvent polyester canvas with Silica Powder is a type of printing material that combines polyester fabric with silica powder for enhanced durability

and print quality.The super wide refers to the larger width of the canvas, typically exceeding the standard 44 inches. This allows for printing larger images or designs

without the need for stitching multiple pieces together.

Eco-solvent refers to the type of ink used in the printing process. Eco-solvent inks are made from environmentally friendly solvents and have low levels of volatile

organic compounds (VOCs). They are known for their durability, water-resistance, and fade resistance.Polyester canvas is a synthetic fabric that is commonly used for

printing due to its strength, flexibility, and resistance to stretching. It is also lightweight and easy to handle.

Silica powder is added to the polyester canvas to improve the print quality and durability. Silica is a naturally occurring mineral that has excellent absorbent properties,

allowing for better ink adhesion and color vibrancy. It also helps to prevent ink bleeding and smudging.

Overall, super wide eco-solvent polyester canvas with silica powder is a high-quality printing material that offers durability, vibrant colors, and environmental friendliness.

It is suitable for a wide range of applications, including banners, signage, art reproductions, and indoor/outdoor displays.
