RICE ROLLER

General Description:

AKSIL grade of silicas are carefully tailored precipitated silica for use as a white reinforcing filler in rice dehusking roller compounds. These are available in both powder and granulate forms. The granulate silicas are compacted with optimum pressure to provide granulate silica particles which disperses in rubber easily in dust free atmosphere.

Application Benefits:

AKSIL grade of silicas possesses a high reinforcing potential and it imparts high degree of hardness, tensile strength, tear resistance and abrasion resistance to rice dehusking roller compounds. The physio chemical properties are carefully chosen during the manufacturing process so as to provide optimum application benefits during the compounding process. Please refer to the tabulation of physio-chemical properties shown here.

Storage:

In order to ensure that the properties of AKSIL grade of silicas remain intact, our precipitated silica grades are required to be stored in closed and dry premises against exposure to volatile substances. Strict adherence to the storage conditions ensures prolonged usability. We generally recommend storage period of not more than one year with strict observance of storage parameters.

Product Safety:

Silica is an inert non-toxic white filler. Complete details regarding the product safety are available in our Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) which will be distributed at the time of supplies. We recommend that information regarding product safety of our silica grades may be obtained and carefully read prior to their use.

Spray dried granular and powder silicas for rice roller applications.
