Description
Silicon dioxide fumed (ROTI®nanoMETIC) is a hydrophobic nanoparticulate material with a typical particle size of approximately 10 nm. It is identified by CAS number 60676-86-0 and EG number 262-373-8, with the empirical formula SiO₂, a molar mass of 60,09 g/mol and a density of 2,2 g/cm³. Hydrophobic fumed silica of this type is used in materials research, surface chemistry and formulation development, influencing rheology, dispersion behaviour and composite performance. The ROTI®nanoMETIC designation from manufacturer Carl ROTH highlights the nano-scale character of the product for coatings, polymer additives, catalyst-related trials and analytical method work. Clear chemical identity, particle-size indication and physical data help document reagents and reproduce conditions across experimental series in academic and industrial settings.

Questions about Silicon dioxide fumed, ROTI®nanoMETIC, 5 g, plastic
What is this article?
Silicon dioxide fumed, ROTI®nanoMETIC, 5 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Nanomaterials & quantum dots, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
A nanomaterial is defined by a particle size that changes how it behaves. A quantum dot's optical emission depends on that size. The stated diameter, the surface coating and the concentration are the specification. The bulk powder of the same composition is not this product.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
Which category should I open next?
