Abstract
Alveolated silicate particles can be obtained according to Patent (24/2) of BASF A.G. by preparing droplets of an aqueous solution of an alkaline silicate, which then are solidified in a precipitation bath, transforming them into a gel, that contains a pore-forming agent, whereafter the gel particles thus formed are expanded. The precipitation bath contains mineral and organic gel-forming agents and mineral or organic acids or a combination of these agents, which realise a sudden transformation of the aqueous alkaline silicate solution into a solid gel.
