ZLSIL-W2000 Food Grade Silicon Dioxide (Flow Aid Grade)
Product Description
ZLSIL-W2000 is a specialized food-grade flow aid silicon dioxide (SiO₂, INS No. E551) engineered to optimize the flow properties of fine powdered food products. Manufactured using a refined micronization and classification process, it complies with global food safety standards including GB 2760, GB 25576, FDA 21 CFR 172.480, EU Regulation 1333/2008, USP, and FCC. This white, ultra-fine, highly fluffy powder exhibits exceptional flow characteristics, effectively reducing inter-particle adhesion and friction. It is specifically designed to enhance efficiency and reduce waste in high-speed automated food processing operations such as filling, mixing, and packaging.
Application Guidelines
• Dairy & Nutritional Powders: Ideal for whole milk powder, skim milk powder, infant formula, whey protein isolate, and plant-based protein powders. It significantly improves filling accuracy by ±0.5% and increases production speed by 15–20% on high-speed rotary filling lines, reducing product waste and downtime.
• Beverage & Confectionery Powders: Eliminates bridging and rat-holing in hoppers and silos during the processing of cocoa powder, instant coffee, tea powder, and hard candy mixes, ensuring continuous and uniform material flow.
• Food Additive Blends: Promotes uniform dispersion of vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and enzymes in premix formulations, ensuring consistent nutrient distribution and preventing segregation during transportation and storage.
Production Advantages
• Proprietary air classification process delivers a narrow particle size distribution and superior flow properties batch after batch.
• Equipped with state-of-the-art powder rheology testing equipment to ensure compliance with the most stringent flowability requirements for automated production lines.
• Our experienced technical team provides on-site application support, helping customers optimize dosage levels and processing parameters based on their specific powder characteristics.
Packaging, Storage & Transportation
• Packaging: 5kg/10kg/20kg vacuum-sealed aluminum foil bags with built-in desiccants to prevent moisture absorption and agglomeration during storage.
• Storage & Transportation: Store in a cool, dry, dark place away from direct sunlight and physical pressure. Avoid stacking pallets more than 5 high to prevent powder compaction. This product is non-hazardous and can be safely transported via air, sea, and land freight.
• Labeling: Customizable product labels available in multiple languages, including detailed handling instructions and safety information for industrial users.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will the flow improvement last throughout the final product's shelf life?
A: Yes, when stored in sealed containers as recommended, ZLSIL-W2000 maintains its flow-enhancing properties for the entire shelf life of both the additive and the final food product, typically 12–24 months.
Q: Is it effective for cohesive and high-fat food powders?
A: Yes, ZLSIL-W2000 is particularly effective for cohesive and high-fat powders such as chocolate powder and creamers. Our technical team can recommend optimal dosage levels ranging from 0.2% to 1.0% based on your specific product formulation.
Q: Does it work with all types of automated filling equipment?
A: ZLSIL-W2000 is compatible with most modern automated food processing and filling systems, including auger fillers, vibratory feeders, pneumatic conveying systems, and tablet presses.
