Synopsis

Provides a comprehensive account of the silica chemistry involved in a wide range of research and development activities, and a wealth of information on production and production control. Discusses the solubility of different forms of silica and the factors that influence dissolution and deposition, comparing and recommending analytical methods. Describes the mechanism of polymerization of silicic acid and formation of colloid, and the mechanism by which silica powders and gels are formed and their properties controlled. Examines the many types and uses of commercial concentrated sols, gels, and ultrafine powders. Covers the applications and biochemical properties of the surface chemistry of silica, and the role of silica in different life forms. Includes extensive references.
