all hands agree ... there's nothing like the white magic of CAB-O-SIL® to make clear, no-drip dipping compounds Just a little bit of Cab-o-sil saves a lot of dipcoating dollars. 2 to 5% Cab-o-sil by weight, added to the liquid resin as a thixotropic agent, stops drainage prob lems cold. There's no drip, no draining, no loss of resin, at either high or low temperatures, even during application. Cab-o-sil permits a wider choice of resins, since it can usually thicken a low viscosity resin without risk ing the loss of the resin's wetting characteristics. Equally important, Cab-o-sil permits a wider choice of plasticizers or solvents, since flow properties are more easily regulated. Cab-o-sil is very easily dispersed and thoroughly
compatible with the liquid phase of any resin system.

And, it lets you maintain perfect clarity or brightness
Thixotropic, thickening, gelling agent— lubricating oils, greases, polyester resins, epoxy resins, plastisols, plastigels, or ganosols Suspending agent— paints Flatting agent — varnishes, lacquers, organosols, plastisols Reinforcing agent— rubber, silicone, latex film Anticaking agent — sulfur, insecticides Antislip agent—sol vent-base floor waxes Precoatingmaterial— reproduction paper Low temperature thermal insulation Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics — (See bulletin #cpha-1)
of color, depending on your needs, since it has no effect on resin transparency or on the tinting strength of coloring pigments. The coating is easily applied, and the finish is smooth and even. There's much more to the Cab-o-sil story. The end uses of this superfine "airborne" silica are still being explored. Here are some of the ways in which this immensely useful agent, with its superfine particle size (11.1 million billion particles per gram), its uni formly high purity (99.7%) and its chemical inertness, is being used today.
