F029SD Silicon Dioxide (China) : ซิลิกอน ไดออกไซด์ (จีน)

What is silicon dioxide? Silicon dioxide, or silica, is a combination of silicon and oxygen, two very abundant, naturally occurring materials.There are many forms of silica. They all have the same makeup but may have a different name, depending on how the particles arrange themselves. In general, there are two groups of silica: crystalline silica and amorphous silica.

Silicon dioxide is also added to many foods and supplements. As a food additive, it serves as an anticaking agent to avoid clumping. In supplements, it’s used to prevent the various powdered ingredients from sticking together.

• ป้องกันการจับตัวเป็นก้อนของวัตถุดิบอาหาร
• ช่วยให้ส่วนประกอบในอาหารผสมเข้ากันได้ดี
• ลดระยะเวลาการผสมอาหาร

Silicon dioxide exists naturally within the earth and our bodies. There isn’t yet evidence to suggest it’s dangerous to ingest as a food additive, but more research is needed on what role it plays in the body. Chronic inhalation of silica dust can lead to lung disease.
