Abstract
Dry, freely-flowing, water-insoluble but readily dispersible, solid and homogeneous silica pigment particulates essentially spheroidal in geometrical configuration and having a mean particle size in excess of 80.mu., preferably in excess of 150.mu., are prepared by atomizing to dryness a pulverulent aqueous suspension of silica having a solids contact in excess of 18%. Such silica pigment particulates, advantageously comprised of precipitated silica, are well adapted as reinforcing fillers for elastomeric matrices.
