Great product.
Cab-o-sil is a known product to us since our university days when we worked on conductive elastomers for the US Navy. Its made by Cabot Chemical out of Boston so you know its an excellent product for thickening solutions and epoxies or as an anticaking agent. Wouldnt use any other brand of fumed silica Cab-o-sil continues to be tops.
Arrived as ordered. Thanks
Just what I needed. Works good
Excellent service and delivery. Easy to purchase a variety of amounts of this product at good prices.
