Evonik presents their newest silica technology SPHERILEX® 148. To ease the life of an increasingly large percentage of the world’s population experiencing gum and teeth sensitivity, Business Line Silica created a new grade of precipitated silica designed to benefit sensitive toothpaste formulations.
How SPHERILEX® 148 Works?
The flow of fluids through open dentin tubules allows external stimuli, e.g. cold, acid, etc., to reach the nerves in the tooth pulp tissue which can trigger a sensation of pain. With its matching round shape and precisely controlled smaller particle size, SPHERILEX® 148 has been shown to have an affinity to occlude dentin tubules. This naturally derived mineral product enhances Evonik’s existing portfolio of
ZEODENT® and
SPHERILEX® grades.
All silica oral care products are produced under the highest safety and quality standards. SPHERILEX® 148 meets USP-NF ‘Dental-Type Silica’ and EP ‘Silica, dental type’ monographs, and is listed as a “derived mineral ingredient” in the Annex D of ISO 16128-1 with the INCI name “Hydrated Silica”. All Oral Care SPHERILEX® grades conform to COSMOS as a non-organic raw material and are certified Pareve, Kosher, Kosher for Passover, and Halal.
