Introduction

Fumed silica (pyrogenic silicon dioxide) has a relatively high concentration of silanol groups formed

during high-temperature flame hydrolysis and the following cooling process. This specified property

enables fumed silica to be widely used as a reinforcing filler, thickener, thixotropy-increasing and anti-

sagging additive in numerous industries, for example silicone rubber, coating materials, adhesives and

sealants.

The determination of the silanol group content on the surface of fumed silica is essential for both

manufacturers and users to develop a high-performance, surface modified fumed silica and improve

existing products. Further, it also facilitates the communication among interested parties.

Introduction

Fumed silica (pyrogenic silicon dioxide) has a relatively high concentration of silanol groups formed

during high-temperature flame hydrolysis and the following cooling process. This specified property

enables fumed silica to be widely used as a reinforcing filler, thickener, thixotropy-increasing and anti-

sagging additive in numerous industries, for example silicone rubber, coating materials, adhesives and

sealants.

The determination of the silanol group content on the surface of fumed silica is essential for both

manufacturers and users to develop a high-performance, surface modified fumed silica and improve

existing products. Further, it also facilitates the communication among interested parties.

In practice, methods of titration, thermogravimetry (TG), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and reaction gas

chromatography can be a choice for the determination of the silanol group content on the surface of

fumed silica. Among these methods, the method of reaction gas chromatography is preferred by users

due to the advantage of higher sensitivity and better reproducibility.

This document provides a detailed procedure for how to conduct the testing of the silanol group content

on the surface of fumed silica by means of the reaction gas chromatographic method.
