In the global food processing industry, powder caking, poor fluidity in high-humidity environments, and unstable storage of active ingredients have long been core pain points restricting production efficiency and product quality. As a world-renowned pioneer in specialty materials, Solvay has built a full set of high-performance solutions for the food, dietary supplement and feed industries with its Tixosil series of food grade precipitated amorphous silica, and has become a benchmark supplier trusted by multinational food manufacturers worldwide.
The Tixosil series is manufactured through Solvay's advanced precision precipitation process, with a stable amorphous structure, high chemical inertness, super high adsorption capacity and excellent powder flow modification properties. Its flagship offering, Tixosil® 38A, is tailored for industrial food and feed scenarios, with a median particle size (D50) of about 60μm, a typical oil absorption value of 275mL/100g, and a BET specific surface area of 180-220 m²/g. The coarse particle design greatly reduces dust generation during production, while the ultra-high adsorption performance can efficiently lock moisture and grease in the powder system, fundamentally solving the agglomeration problem of products during storage and transportation. Its nearly neutral pH value will not affect the flavor, taste and active ingredient stability of the final product, and it is perfectly compatible with various food and supplement formula systems.
The full Tixosil product line has passed the most stringent global regulatory certification, fully complying with FCC standards, EU 10/2011/EU food contact regulations, and has obtained Halal, Kosher, GFSI and HACCP system certification. It is allergen-free, non-GMO, and has no solvent residue, which can meet the market access requirements of all mainstream countries and regions in the world. The series covers a complete product matrix, from high-load active ingredient carriers for high-humidity systems to ultra-fine particle products for low-addition anti-caking scenarios, which can provide targeted adaptation solutions for different process requirements, helping global customers optimize production processes and improve product shelf life stability.
