Abstract
Finely divided, fluosilicate-treated silica, such as silica flatting agent for use in coating formulations, is prepared by blending in a dry, finely divided state, silica and divalent metal fluosilicate, notably magnesium fluosilicate. In a preferred embodiment, dry pellets of amorphous, precipitated silica and dry magnesium fluosilicate are milled together to produce the fluosilicate-treated flatting agent. In another embodiment, an aqueous solution of magnesium fluosilicate is applied to silica pellets which are then milled.
