DE-BRITE^TM is a multifunctional mineral filler that improves paint and coating performance. DE-BRITE^TM has a surface area that measures at 76 m³ /g. Other competitive diatomaceous earth brands have a surface area as low as 30 m³/g. DE-BRITE^TM diatoms are a functional additive with high porosity, increasing paint film permeability allowing the paint vehicle to rapidly volatize and allows the paint to dry quickly and uniformly thus reducing peeling and blistering.

DE-BRITETM can be used in masterbatches of resin up to 50%, along with antioxidants and other additives.  DE-BRITETM is superior to talc and has a low refractive index like nephaline synite.  Matting and opacity is improved because the size and structure of the diatoms diffract light and it passes through the film.
