60842-32-2 Usage
General Description
Aerosil R 972 is a hydrophobic fumed silica, which is widely used as a thickening and anti-caking agent in a variety of industries including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food. It consists of very fine, amorphous silica particles that are treated with a dimethylsiloxane polymer. This treatment makes the silica hydrophobic, meaning it repels water and has enhanced compatibility with non-polar substances. As a result, Aerosil R 972 can improve the flow properties, reduce caking, and enhance the stability of powdered or granulated materials. It is also used as a free-flow agent in pharmaceutical formulations and as a thickening and thixotropic agent in paints, coatings, and adhesives.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 60842-32-2 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 6,0,8,4 and 2 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 2 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 60842-32:
(7*6)+(6*0)+(5*8)+(4*4)+(3*2)+(2*3)+(1*2)=112
112 % 10 = 2
So 60842-32-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
