PROMAXON® is a synthetic hydrated calcium silicate that appears as a white, free flowing powder consisting of microporous spherical particles.
By means of a special crystallization process and controlled crystal growth, particles are produced with a more or less spherical morphology. An open inner structure is surrounded by an outer shell of close knitted needle-like crystals. Through pore openings in the outer shell an outstanding good pore structure is developed with a unique pore distribution and volume.
This chemical structure of PROMAXON corresponds with the known mineral Xonotlite of which the chemical synthesis can be written as Ca6Si6O17(OH)2.
Because of the remarkable properties, resulting from its chemical structure, its physical characteristics and its outstanding morphology, PROMAXON® is used as a versatile additive for a variety of different applications:
