Silica sol/Alumina sol
Cataloid is the water-dispersed sol of silica particles and alumina particles.
Using our nanoparticle preparation technology, which is one of our core technologies, we are able to offer a line-up of products with various particle sizes, particle distributions, and shapes.
By assigning a range of functions based on the particle sizes, particle distributions, and shapes, we have created products that can be used across a wide range of fields.
Examples of application
Polishing
Due to the uniform particle size and spherical shape, it is possible to obtain a precisely polished surface with minimal scratches for various base materials.
Particles of variant shapes, which are expected to further improve polishing rete, are also available.
Binder for forming ceramic
The OH group on the surface of the particles bind and harden through the drying and the firing process.
Texture application
Texture is applied to the surface of the base material, giving it qualities such as anti-blocking and non-slip properties.
Inorganic paints
It is then added to paints to give it the properties of hardness and hydrophilicity.
Features of JGC C&C’s technology
Particle size control
Particle diameter can be adjusted to various sizes, from several nm to hundreds of nm.
Depending on the particle size, various functions can be assigned, such as binding capability, slippery quality, and polishing capability.
We offer products with a wide range of particle sizes to suit your needs and uses.
Distribution control
In addition to sharp particle distribution, adjustments can also be made to provide broad particle distribution.
Particle Shape Control
We can control particle shape according to customers’ request or application.
We can produce various shaped particles not a only spherical shape but also various irregular shapes.
Irregular shaped particles will be expected to improve performance such as binding capability or removal rate and so on.
