  • Patent number: 6673208
    Abstract: The present invention relates to polysilicate microgels, their preparation and use in paper making and water purification, the polysilicate microgels being obtainable by a process which comprises bringing into contact (i) particles of a salt AB with an aqueous silicate or polysilicate solution, (ii) an ion A with an ion B in the presence of an aqueous silicate or polysilicate solution, whereby the salt AB is precipitating in the aqueous phase, or (iii) an ion A with an ion B in the presence of an aqueous silicate or polysilicate solution, whereby the ions A and B represent ions of a precipitable salt AB having a pKS value of at least 4, measured at 20° C. in water. The invention further relates to aqueous silicate or polysilicate solutions, their preparation and use as precursors for polysilicate microgels.
