ShivaSOL™ Sodium Aluminium Silicate
ShivaSOL™ Sodium Aluminium Silicate is a white, amorphous, odourless synthetic aluminosilicate powder with high surface area and strong moisture absorption capacity. It is used as an anticaking agent, flow aid, absorbent, and functional filler across food, detergent, pharmaceutical, personal care, coatings, rubber, plastics, and paper applications.
Its chemically inert nature and GRAS status make it suitable for food-contact and other regulated applications where effective moisture management and formulation stability are required.
Product Overview
Supporting Flow, Stability & Moisture Control
ShivaSOL™ Sodium Aluminium Silicate is a synthetic amorphous aluminosilicate supplied as a fine, white, odourless powder. Its high surface area and moisture absorption capacity make it a versatile functional material for applications requiring anticaking, absorption, flow improvement, and formulation support.
It is widely used in powdered food products as an anticaking agent, in detergent and chemical powders as a flow aid, and in pharmaceutical and personal care formulations as an absorbent. It can also function as a filler in paints, rubber, plastics, and paper.
With its chemically inert nature and GRAS status, ShivaSOL™ Sodium Aluminium Silicate can support applications where controlled formulation performance and suitability for regulated environments are important.
