SIPERNAT® specialty silica absorbs liquid ingredients like a sponge and transforms them into pourable powders for easy processing and handling.

SIPERNAT® precipitated silica products display outstanding absorption capacity, good flow capability, and chemical purity. They are appreciated as carriers for liquid ingredients, as stabilizing active fillers, and as free flow, anti-caking and rheology aids for powders.

SIPERNAT® is Evonik’s high-performance carrier silica, characterized by its ability to convert liquids into free-flowing powders – even sticky liquids wit high oil, fat, or protein content. Its porous, sponge-like structure absorbs liquids without changing the shape of the silica particles. This results in a “dry liquid”, a dust-free microgranular absorbate which can be handled and processed easily. SIPERNAT® improves processing of powders, distributes active ingredients homogeneously in formulations, and it ensures long-term storage stability.

Depending on the application, SIPERNAT® products with different particle sizes are available. Evonik also offers special SIPERNAT® grades for industries with high regulatory requirements, such as the pharmaceutical industry.

Main applications are animal feed and nutrition, food, personal care, plastics, building and construction.
