Products for Life Sciences
These membrane gas dryers contain hollow fibers that help control moisture in medical equipment. FORBLUE™ sunsep dryers can remove water vapor from a patient’s breath samples or it can humidify therapeutic oxygen for a more comfortable patient experience.
Microspherical silica is an ideal additive for personal care products like makeup, skin cream and sun care lotion. Products that use RESIFA™ SOLESPHERE™ particles feel smoother and less abrasive when applied to the skin. The particles can also be used to achieve a matte appearance that hides skin imperfections. Adding these particles to sunscreen formulations boosts their SPF, enabling fewer organic or inorganice active ingredients to be used.
Fine silica for chromatography and peptide/protein purification is very effective in separation and identification processes. This is because RESIFA™ M.S.GEL particles have a perfectly spherical shape and a wide particle size distribution ranging from 1.6 to 300 µm.
