Patent ID: 11884551

Abstract:
A precipitated silica having a broad particle size distribution and large median particle size as well as its method of manufacture is provided. The precipitated silica has a CTAB surface area SCTAB in the range from 40 to 300 m2/g, a difference between BET surface area SBET and CTAB surface area SCTAB of at least 35 m2/g, a width of the particle size distribution Ld, measured by centrifugal sedimentation, of at least 1.5, an amount of aluminium WA1 in the range from 0.5 to 7.0 wt %, and a median particle size d50, measured by centrifugal sedimentation, such that for a given value of CTAB surface area SCTAB and amount of aluminium WAl, parameter A, defined by the following equation: A=|d50|+0.782×|SCTAB|−8.524×|WAl|.
