Abstract
Precipitated silicas including clusters of large primary silica particles having at the surface thereof small primary silica particles, have a specific surface area CTAB (SCTAB) ranging from 60 to 400 m2/g; a cluster average size d50, as measured by XDC grading after ultrasound deagglomeration, such that d50 (nm)>(6214/SCTAB (m2/g)+23; a pore volume distribution such that V(d5-d50)/V(d5-d100)>0.906−(0.0013×SCATB (m2/g)); and a pore size distribution such that Mode (nm)>(4166/SCTAB (m2/g))−9.2; such silicas are useful reinforcing fillers for polymers.
