MicroGel® for Passivation of Pigment Degradation

advertisement:

MicroGel® is a unique, highly porous xero-gel silica formed using sol-gel techniques. The starting materials used are designed per guidance from molecular dynamic calculations, and are made up of mixed alkali silicates rather than normally used single alkali silicates that are gelled with appropriate mineral acid at controlled temperature and time.
