Qu'elle soit sous forme cristalline ou amorphe, sublimée ou colloïdale, poreuse ou gel, la silice se retrouve dans une très large gamme de produits traditionnels ou plus high tech : pneus, revêtements, pâte dentifrice, médicaments, batteries, microélectronique. Le milieu industriel classe ces différentes silices par leur mode d'élaboration dictant le type de matériau et donc le type d'application : la silice précipitée, la silice amorphe sublimée, le gel de silice, la silice colloïdale et le verre de silice : [...] - La silice amorphe sublimée donne des surfaces actives de 50 à 400 m²/g. En tant qu'additif elle améliore la résistance à la traction, la rigidité, la couleur, l'opacité ou la brillance. 3, record 1, French, - silice%20sublim%C3%A9e
