High-Purity Silicas for Zeolite Catalyst Applications

For more than five decades, Qemetica HI-SIL® silicas have been specified by zeolite catalyst manufacturers and refinery operators worldwide to facilitate the most difficult reactions and separations in the industry.
 
That tradition continues today with Hi-Sil 250, a high-purity, sulfate-deficient engineered silica that is ideally suited for the manufacture of high-silica zeolites specified in fluid catalytic cracking (FCC), hydrocracking, custom and specialty catalyst applications.

High-Purity Silicas for Zeolite Catalyst Applications

Our ability to precisely select and control particle size, surface area and pore structure of both Hi-Sil 250 and 915 silicas provide the desired catalyst support structure required for polymer synthesis applications. 
 
Available for global delivery, Hi-Sil silicas provide chemists with a trusted solution to meet the stringent requirements of today’s catalyst market.
