Rhodia’s Tixosil® precipitated silica can help toothpaste formulators meet the challenge of multi-purpose products.
Tight control of our manufacturing process not only enables Rhodia to make products of consistently high quality but also a wide range of versatile silicas ideally suited to oral care applications.
Ranging from standard grades to the most recent generation of innovative products, Tixosil® multi-functional silicas offer:
• Superior polishing and cleaning performance
Our expertise in manufacturing precipitated silicas enables us to precisely control the size and shape of the silica particles. These parameters directly impact the abrasive properties of the silica. Abrasion is a major concern for toothpaste manufacturers. Rhodia can thus guarantee the quality and safety of its products for use in oral care applications.
When it comes to the polishing vs. abrasion challenge, Rhodia's silicas are up to the task.
• Thickening capabilities
Tixosil® silicas supplement the action of organic thickeners, thus allowing the required texture and mouth-feel to be obtained.
•Compatibility with all formulations
Unlike calcium-based polishing agents, Tixosil® silicas are compatible with all active ingredients and therapeutic agents such as sodium fluoride, a major healthcare component in today’s toothpaste products. Furthermore, they can be used in transparent and colored gels.
