Abstract: Fumed silicon dioxide powder in the form of aggregated primary particles having a BET surface area of 175±15 m2/g and a thickening effect, based on the BET surface area, of greater than 18 mPas g/m2 is hydrophobicized with polydimethylsiloxane. This hydrophobic fumed silica has a BET surface area of 110±25 m2/g. It can be used in epoxy resins. These epoxy resins in turn can be used as adhesives.

Abstract: The invention provides an adhesive comprising structurally modified, pyrogenically prepared silicas containing on their surface organosilane groups of the formula (I) SiCnH(2n+1), where n is 2 to 18. The invention further provides for the use of these structurally modified, pyrogenically prepared silicas in adhesives.

Abstract: Adhesive, comprising silanized, structurally modified, pyrogenically prepared silicas containing on their surface fixed vinyl groups or vinylsilyl groups, with hydrophobic groups, such as trimethylsilyl and/or dimethylsilyl and/or monomethylsilyl, additionally being fixed on the surface.
