Abstract: A modified precipitated silica comprising precipitated silica and at least one polymer selected from the group consisting of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate and poly(vinylphosphonic acid) is useful for the manufacture of peroxide-based whitening oral care compositions having improved stability over time. It is also useful for the manufacture of elastomeric compositions having a performing balance of properties including e.g. high rolling resistance and/or high wear resistance.

Abstract: A process for preparing precipitated silica comprising a reaction of a silicate with an acidifying agent to obtain a suspension of precipitated silica, followed by a step of separation to obtain a cake and a step of drying said cake, wherein a step of compaction of said cake at a pressure greater than 10 bars is carried out between the step of separation and the step of drying.

Abstract: A precipitated silica having a CTAB specific surface in the range of from 50 to 300 m2/g; a BET/CTAB specific surface ratio equal to or greater than 1.3 and comprising at least one polycarboxylic acid.

Abstract: A process for preparing precipitated silica comprising a reaction of a silicate with an acidifying agent to obtain a suspension of precipitated silica (S1), followed by a separation step to obtain a cake, a disintegration step of said cake to obtain a suspension of precipitated silica (S2), and a drying step of this suspension, wherein the disintegration step is performed by mixing using a twin-screw mixer or by extrusion.

Abstract: A process for preparing precipitated silica, in which a silicate is reacted with an acidifying agent in order to obtain a suspension of precipitated silica (S1), followed by: a separation step in order to obtain a cake, a cake-disintegration step in order to obtain a suspension of precipitated silica (S2), and a suspension drying step. According to the invention, a membrane concentration step is performed between the disintegration step and the drying step.
