Precipitated silica compositions, and methods for making the same, with improved dentifrice performance characteristics. In particular, precipitated silica compositions of the present invention have a 40% slurry viscosity build of less than approximately 20,000 centipoise and a 10% Brass Einlehner abrasion value of approximately 2.5 to 20.0 mg loss/100,000 rev. Precipitated silica compositions of the present invention also have reactor slurry average particle sizes (50%) of approximately 10 to 50 .mu.m. Methods for preparing precipitated silicas of the present invention include the steps of: (a) adding sodium silicate and a mineral acid to a reactor, thereby initiating a precipitation reaction between the reactor contents; and (b) subjecting the reactor contents to shearing forces as the reaction proceeds.

Precipitated silicas having improved dentifrice performance

A precipitated silica composition which, when incorporated into a suitable dentifrice composition, the dentifrice composition exhibits an mPCR of about 103 to 124 and an RDA of about 88 to 102. The invention also provides a precipitated silica composition which, when incorporated into a suitable dentifrice composition, the dentifrice composition exhibits an mPCR to RDA ratio of greater than about 1.1.

Dental compositions comprise an abrasive, a humectant material, water and a binder. The abrasive comprises sodium aluminosilicate product having a water demand of greater than 50 g water per 100 g product, and the dental compositions comprise a water to abrasive weight ratio greater than 1.

A composite pigment product useful as a paper filler pigment comprises a mineral nucleus coated with a substantially continuous substantially uniform coating of an active paper pigment. The active paper pigment coating is preferably formed in situ under alkaline conditions.

Precipitated encapsulated paper pigments and methods

A composite pigment product useful as a paper filler pigment comprises a substantially inert mineral nucleus coated with a substantially continuous uniform coating of an active paper pigment. The active paper pigment coating is preferably formed in situ under alkaline conditions.

A stabilized powdered endothermic blowing agent which is a mixture of polycarboxylic acid and an inorganic carbonate, the polycarboxylic acid and the inorganic carbonate each having been surface treated with a component which prevents water from being absorbed thereby. The blowing agent is incorporated into a composition for producing foamed products. Additives may be added to the composition which function in conjunction with the blowing agent to cause surface migration of the additives and/or improve weld line strength of the foamed products.

Endothermic blowing agents compositions and applications

Novel precipitated silicon dioxide abrasive compositions which can be incorporated into therapeutic toothpaste compositions containing soluble fluoride salts are disclosed. The abrasives comprise low structure, high fluoride compatible amorphous precipitated silicon dioxides (silicas) having a controlled refractive index for use in low water clear gel dentifrice applications. Also provided are methods for preparation of the novel silicon dioxide abrasives and resulting toothpaste formulations containing such abrasives.
