Abstract: A laundry softener concentrate comprises one or more laundry softeners, synthetic silicon dioxide, and optionally one or more solubilizers. The laundry softener concentrate is in the form of a flowable powder.

Abstract: There is provided a process for improving mineral asphaltic coatings for streets and roadways comprising preparing a mixture to be used as the base mineral asphalt coating material, homogeneously mixing in 0.1 to 10 weight % of silica which is either (1) a precipitated silica, (2) a precipitated and spray dried silica or (3) a pyrogenically produced silica and further working this mixture into a mineral asphalt coating for streets and roadways.

Abstract: Precipitated, jet ground silica with specific physical-chemical properties is mixed with silicone oil, homogenized and heated to produce an antifoam agent. This type of antifoam agent can be used in pharmacy, in producing foam stopping latex emulsion, in the food field, in washing formulations, in the textile industry as well as in the pigment and varnish industries.

Abstract: Powdery bitumen concentrates are prepared containing 10 to 85 weight %, preferably 40 to 80 weight %, of synthetic silica. The concentrate is used in asphalt mixtures for building roads to give high stiffening value thereto.

Abstract: A mastic asphalt composition is disclosed which comprises, in addition to the mastic asphalt, 0.2 to 5 wt. % of a crystalline, powdered, synthetic zeolite or zeolite mixture. In addition, the mastic asphalt composition may further contain precipitated silica.

Abstract: Mastic asphalt mixture for road, building and industrial construction, which contains 0.1 to 2% by weight of silica. For example, a precipitated silica, a precipitated and spray dried, or a pyrogenously produced silica may be used as a synthetic silicic acid. The content of synthetic silica produces an essentially higher degree of hardness in the finished mastic asphalt layer.

Abstract: There is produced a hydrophobic mixture for RTV and LTV silicone rubber by applying a hydrophobizing agent to a precipitated silica, homogeneously mixing this powdery concentrate into a pyrogenically produced silica, tempering the mixture and mechanically compacting. The hydrophobic filler mixture obtained in the untempered condition consists of:Pyrogenically produced silica: 50 to 85 weight %Precipitated silica: 5 to 40 weight % (e.g. 5 to 30 weight %)Hydrophobization agent: 8 to 30 weight %Aluminum oxide: 0.5 to 5 weight %.

Abstract: A shoe cream polish composition which contains in addition to waxes, oils and the like, a finely divided pyrogenic, hydrophobic silicic acid.
