talk about suspending action! Add just 6 % of Cab-0-Sil to a solvent like turpentine; shake well; and just try pouring it out. Gel sets so fast, you literally defy gravity. Even a lead sinker is immediately and firmly locked in suspension. This little test should indicate just how well a 'pinch' of Cabot's unique, superfine silica can settle settling problems, once and for all. And Cab-O-Sil's efficient suspending action works, in all types of solvents (including water systems), usually at extremely low concentrations, with the addition of only trace amounts of selected materials. At just lA to % of 1 % by weight, Cab-
O-Sil acts as an effective antisettling agent in paint. With just 0.6% Cab-O-Sil by weight - and without
additives — Cab-O-Sil
has
eliminated
settling for as long as 13 months, and the paint test can is still on the shelf. If you have any settling problems whatever, Cab-O-Sil is a remarkably economical and effective answer. And, its unique combination of properties makes it useful in a startling variety of other applications as well.
