Isihloko: Ukuthuthukiswa Kokuthobela Izithako Emhlabeni Wonke: I-Silicon Dioxide Esezingeni le-FCC Imisa Ibanga Elisha Lokuphepha Emaketangeni Okuhlinzeka Ngokudla, Izithako Nezemithi Emhlabeni Wonke

JINAN, China – Julayi 24, 2026 – Njengoba imingcele yokufinyelela emakethe yomhlaba wonke yezithako zokudla, izithako ze-nutraceutical kanye nezinto ezingavuthiwe zemithi iyaqhubeka nokuqina, i-silicon dioxide yezinga le-FCC (ehambisana ne-Food Chemicals Codex) isivele iyisithako esiyigolide esisebenza kahle emakethe yaseNyakatho Melika nasemakethe yomhlaba wonke yezinto eziphezulu. Itholwe yi-U.S. FDA njengomgomo oyinhloko wokuthobela imithetho yezithako zokudla, i-silica yezinga le-FCC imele izinga eliphezulu kakhulu lekhwalithi emkhakheni wezithako ezithintana nokudla, futhi isiphenduke uphawu oluyinhloko kubakhiqizi bamakhemikhali amahle baseShayina ukuze bahambisane namazinga ekhwalithi omhlaba wonke futhi banikeze izixazululo ezinomthelela omkhulu zokungenisa izinto ezivela kwamanye amazwe kubathengi bomhlaba wonke.

I-Tsilicon dioxide, eyaziwa kabanzi ngaphansi kwegama le-E551 lezithasiselo zokudla e-European Union, ingenye yezithako ezisebenza ngezindlela eziningi kakhulu ekukhiqizweni kokudla nemithi, inikeza ukusebenza okuqinisekisiwe njengesithako sokuvimbela ukunqwabelana, umsizi wokugeleza ngokukhululeka, i-adsorbent, isithako sokucacisa kanye nesiqinisekisi sokwakheka. Isetshenziswa kabanzi emsoco oyimpuphu, ubisi lwezinsana oluyimpuphu, izimpushana zokuthatha indawo yokudla, izithako zokudla ezingeziwe, ukucaciswa kukabhiya neziphuzo, ukuhlanjululwa kwamafutha adliwayo, kanye nokukhiqizwa kwemithi eyizingqinamba eziqinile. Ngokungafani nemikhiqizo evamile ye-silica yezinga lokudla ehlangabezana kuphela namazinga kazwelonke ayisisekelo, i-silicon dioxide yezinga le-FCC ikhiqizwa ngaphansi kohlelo lokuphatha ikhwalithi oluqinile kakhulu oluhlanganisa ubumsulwa, izinsalela ezingcolile, imikhawulo yensimbi enzima kanye nemikhiqizo engemihle yokucubungula, okwenza kube yinto eluhlaza edingekayo emakethe yokuhlinzeka yomhlaba wonke esezingeni eliphezulu.

Emgogweni wokuhambisana nezimfuneko zokuphepha, i-FCC-grade silica ibekwe emazingeni aphezulu kakhulu okuphepha aziwa emhlabeni wonke. I-fumed silica kanye ne-high-purity precipitated silica ekhiqizwe ngokwezindinganiso ze-FCC zihlinzeka ngama-99.0% we-silicon dioxide okungenani esilinganisweni esomile, kanye nokulawulwa okuqinile kokulahlekelwa ukusha kanye nokuncipha kokomisa. Emikhawulweni ebalulekile yokuphepha, le nto ihlangabezana nemikhawulo ephezulu yokusalela engu-≤5ppm we-lead kanye no-≤2ppm we-arsenic – okuqine kakhulu kunezidingo ezijwayelekile zemboni – kuqeda izingozi ezivela ekudlulisweni kwezinsimbi ezinobungozi. Le nto ihambisana ngokugcwele nemithetho ye-FDA 21 CFR, ayinazo izinsalela eziyingozi eziphilayo noma ukungcola okucasulayo, futhi ayisebenzi ngokwamakhemikhali cishe kuzo zonke izinhlelo zokwenziwa kokudla nemithi, ihambisana ngokugcwele nemihlahlandlela yokuphepha yokusiza ekucubunguleni ukudla emhlabeni wonke.

Ezinsimini zokusebenza zomhlaba wangempela, i-FCC-grade silicon dioxide iletha ukuzinza okungenakuqhathaniswa kwenqubo kanye nokusebenza okuhlukahlukene ezimweni ezahlukene. Njengesengezo sokudla esisebenzayo, isebenza njenge-anti-caking agent esebenza kahle kakhulu kanye ne-flow aid yokudla okuyimpuphu kanye nemikhiqizo yezithako, ixazulula izinkinga eziqhubekayo zomkhakha ezihlanganisa ukuhlangana okubangelwa umswakama, ukugeleza kwe-impuphu okungahambi kahle kanye nokulinganisa okungahambisani ngesikhathi sokupakisha ngejubane eliphezulu, kuyilapho inikeza ukuzinza kweshelufu iminyaka eminingi emikhiqizweni eqediwe. Njengosizo lokucubungula ukudla, yakhelwe ngqo ukususa umbala emafutheni adliwayo kanye nezinqubo zokucacisa ubhiya/iziphuzo, lapho imunca ngempumelelo ukungcola, ukunambitheka okungahambi kahle kanye nezinhlanganisela ezingafunwa zemibala – futhi ngokwamazinga omhlaba wonke okukhiqiza ukudla, isuswa ngokuphelele ngokuhlunga ngemva kokucubungula, ngaphandle kokushiyeka okunoma yikuphi emikhiqizweni yabathengi eqediwe.

Ngaphandle kokusetshenziswa kokudla kanye nezithako ezinomsoco, i-silica yezinga le-FCC iyahambisana nezindinganiso ze-USP (United States Pharmacopeia) kanye ne-EP (European Pharmacopoeia), okuyivumela ukuthi isebenzele izigaba ezintathu eziphezulu ngasikhathi sinye: ukukhiqizwa kokudla, ukwenziwa kwezithako ezinomsoco, kanye nezicelo zezithako zemithi. Ngokusabalalisa ubukhulu bezinhlayiya okulungiseka ngokunembile, ukuhlakazeka okuhle kanye nokusebenza okungaguquki kokumunca, le nto ihlangabezana hhayi nje nezidingo zokuphepha kokudla kwabathengi, kodwa futhi nezimfuno eziqinile zokunemba ekucindezelweni kwamaphilisi emithi, ukusiza ukugeleza kwefomula kanye nokuzinza kwempushana yemithi eqinile. Okwamanje iyinto ekhethwayo ehambisana nezimfuneko zokuthengiselana ngaphesheya kwemingcele kanye nokuhlolwa kwabahlinzeki bezinkampani emhlabeni wonke eNyakatho Melika, eYurophu nase-APAC.

Umkhakha wezithako zokudla nemithi emhlabeni wonke njengamanje ushintshela unomphela ekukhiqizeni okujwayelekile, ukuhlanzeka okuphezulu kakhulu, ukulandeleka okugcwele nokuthobela izimakethe eziningi. Imikhiqizo ye-silica esezingeni eliphansi, engaqinisekisiwe iya ngokuya ikhishwa emaketangeni okuhlinzeka aphezulu, kuyilapho imikhiqizo ye-silicon dioxide enezitifiketi eziningi ze-FCC, FDA, USP ne-EP isiba umahluko oyinhloko wokuncintisana kubakhiqizi abagxile ekuthengiselweni kwamanye amazwe.

Phambili, abakhiqizi bakwaSilica abakhethekile baseShayina bazoqhubeka nokuthuthukisa izinqubo zokukhiqiza ezihambisana namazinga aphelele e-FCC omhlaba, ngokulawula okuqinile ezinkomba eziyinhloko zekhwalithi ezihlanganisa ukungcola kwezinto ezimnyama, izinsalela ezingcolile, ukungaguquguquki kosayizi wezinhlayiyana kanye nendawo ethile yobuso. Inhloso ukuletha iqoqo lemikhiqizo ejwayelekile, ecwengisisiwe, nekhwalithi ephezulu enikezela abalingani bomhlaba wonke bokudla, izithako zempilo kanye nemithi ngezixazululo ze-silica ezisebenza kahle, ezinokuzinza okuphezulu, neziphephile, okusekela izinto zokusetshenziswa zamakhemikhali ezikhethekile zaseShayina ukuncintisana nokuhola emakethe yomhlaba yezithako eziphezulu.
