MOLSIL™ DIOX

Colloidal Anhydrous Silica

(Glidant / Adsorbent)

Colloidal Anhydrous Silica
MOLSIL™ DIOX is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula SiO₂, widely known as Colloidal Anhydrous Silica. In cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations, it functions primarily as a glidant, improving powder flow during manufacturing. Its ultrafine particles reduce friction, minimize clumping, and ensure consistent dosing.

Colloidal Anhydrous Silica

Muby Chem operates a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility producing Colloidal Anhydrous Silica, known for its exceptional purity and efficacy. This compound is particularly valuable in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

Our cutting-edge technology ensures the production of high-quality Colloidal Anhydrous Silica, meeting the highest standards for performance and consistency.

Application: MOLSIL™ DIOX is a multifunctional ingredient used as an absorbent, anti-caking agent, abrasive, bulking agent, and viscosity controller. In cosmetics, it absorbs excess oil and sweat, imparts a matte finish in makeup, enhances texture and spreadability in skincare products, and prevents clumping in powders. It is also incorporated in sunscreens, mascaras and exfoliating washes to improve product stability, performance and application quality.

We follow Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and adhere to international regulatory standards to ensure quality consistency with continuous supply.
