QSIL
(Sustainable high-purity silica to replace microplastics)

TDS

QSIL provides a tactile experience so unique that it's hard to believe it's silica.

  • First in the World
    QSIL is a newly developed silica particle, created by N&M Technologies in collaboration with SID Biotech and Good Answers.

  • >99.9% Purity
    Free from all kinds of metals with silica purity over 99.9%. 

  • Perfectly smooth, pore-free spheres
    QSIL features a completely smooth, pore-free surface, while containing a significant number of internal pores.

  • Exceptional Tactile Experience
    QSIL offers an exceptional tactile experience due to its smooth, spherical shape.

  • Replacement of Microplastic Beads (Low water/oil absorbency)
    Because of its smooth, non-porous surface, QSIL has an oil and water absorbency of only 30wt%, making it an excellent candidate for replacing microplastic beads.

  • Various Sizes Available
    QSIL is available in both polydisperse and monodisperse size distributions, with median particle sizes of 5, 3, and 1 micrometers for both versions.

  • Hydrophobically Modified QSIL are available on request.​
