Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

External layer:
hydrophilic
Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.

Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.

Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Percentile:
D90
Range:
>= 1 - <= 100 nm
Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.
Fraction of constituent particles in the size range 1-100 nm:
100 - 100 %
Structure:
amorphous
Pure structure:
yes
Range:
> 99.7 - <= 100 %
Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.

Name of set of nanoforms:
synthetic amorphous silicon dioxide (SAS), nanostructured material, silanized
Shape category:

Percentile:
D50
Range:
>= 1 - <= 100 nm
Percentile:
D90
Range:
>= 1 - <= 100 nm
Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.
Fraction of constituent particles in the size range 1-100 nm:
100 - 100 %
Structure:
amorphous
Pure structure:
yes
Range:

Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.
Fraction of constituent particles in the size range 1-100 nm:
100 - 100 %
Structure:
amorphous
Pure structure:
yes
Range:
> 99.7 - <= 100 %
Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Percentile:
D90
Range:

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.
Fraction of constituent particles in the size range 1-100 nm:
100 - 100 %
Structure:
amorphous
Pure structure:
yes
Range:

Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

#2
Surface treatment agent:
Amorphous Silicon Dioxide - organic treatment (silanized)
External layer:
hydrophilic
Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.

Additional information:
The particle forming mechanism for each manufacturing process starts with the formation of liquid nuclei that grow to constituent particles that coagulate to aggregates and solidify. Constituent particles are therefore spherical in nature while aggregates (and agglomerates) show a high fractal structure.

100 - 100 %
Structure:
amorphous
Pure structure:

Description:
In general, SAS contains no detectable amounts of crystalline silica. X-ray diffraction diagrams of SAS, show only a broad halo, revealing an X-ray amorphous structure. The detection limit for crystallinity by X-ray is in the maximum order of 0.3% by weight or below.

Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.

Description:
The silica nanoparticles are silane derivatized by covalent bonding (a condensation reaction) of the hydrolysed organosilanes to the silanols on the surface of the particles. This is done at high temperature (50-90C) and at high pH (9-11), making all the glycidoxypropyl silanes open up to diols (the functionality introduced on the surface of the Levasil CC products). For the Levasil CC 141, CC301 and CC401 products, the glycidoxypropyl silane is the only silane. For the Levasil CC503, a 50/50 molar ratio of glycidoxypropyl and propyl silane is used. No purification of the products is made.
