FNX-1073 is a high-purity silica gel with an untreated surface. With its slightly coarser particle size, this matting agent provides strong gloss reduction while maintaining a uniform, stable finish. Its high whiteness ensures clean matte appearances across a variety of coating systems.

FNX-1073 is particularly well suited for:
Industrial coatings requiring stronger matting effects with consistent film properties.
Wood coatings to achieve deeper, natural-looking low-gloss finishes.
Plastic coatings where effective gloss knockdown and uniform surface quality are important.
General-purpose coatings that demand reliable matting performance with enhanced strength.
