Cab-O-Sil is the name for a range of amorphous fumed silica products made by Cabot Corporation. The molecular structure consists of nanometre droplets of amorphous silica fused into branched chains. They are characterised by high purity, low bulk density and submicron particle size. 

Cabot Cab-O-Sil® M-5 is a medium surface area fumed silica which imparts a significant increase in viscosity to liquid systems, free flow of powders and reinforcement of silicone and organic rubbers.

Cabot Cab-O-Sil® TS-720 is a medium surface area fumed silica which has been surface modified with polydimethylsiloxane. The treatment renders it extremely hydrophobic, with very different properties to untreated silica grades like M5.

Storage

Silica will not degrade with time however it should be noted that certain grades will absorb moisture and other vapors. Due to this it’s recommended that silica is stored in a clean, dry area away from chemical vapors at ambient temperatures. While we list the expiry date on documents this is based on the shelf life of packaging – meaning that if stored as per instructions on MSDS (usually in section 7) then the material will not degrade with time. The only expected product changes are based on moisture absorption and application properties. For further details see 'Cab-O-Sil Storage' in the Downloads section below.

Volume of Cab O Sil is 24/Ltrs per kg

Safety

Read label before use. Keep out of reach of children. If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand. Irritating to eyes. May cause sensitisation by skin contact.
Do not breathe dust. Avoid contact with skin. Avoid contact with eyes, In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. After contact with skin, wash immediately with plenty of soapy water. In case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment.
Dry powders can build static electrical charges when subject to friction by mixing, sliding, pouring or conveying. Proper safety precautions including adequate electrical grounding, inerting the air space above flammable or explosive liquids etc, should be taken to prevent accidents. Refer to NFPA no -77-1984 for further details.
