Stage lock · only inside the mill
Click any process stage to try feeding R100A: only the milling stage accepts it, every other stage is refused with a red lock.
Coupling · grinding aid · dispersion · encapsulation
R100A offers outstanding interfacial activity, dispersibility, grinding-aid and encapsulation performance, and is widely used to activate inorganic fillers: an activation rate above 98%, markedly improving the performance of inorganic fillers in organic polymers.
Add in the mill only · maximum effect
Add during ore milling (grinding) only; ground together with the ore it delivers the greatest grinding-aid and activation performance — raising milling efficiency, cutting resistance and energy use, and improving fineness and uniformity.
With stearic acid · even lower oil absorption
When the modified powder is used downstream in plastics, compounding with stearic acid is strongly recommended: the drop in oil absorption is markedly larger than with stearic acid alone, encapsulation is higher and dispersion better; used alone it still keeps excellent coupling.
Compounding balance · per-mille scale
Recommended downstream ratio 3:2; milling dosage 3–10‰ set per powder type.
Physical and chemical properties (TDS)
Typical factory values; a COA test report accompanies every batch.

01Product positioning
R100A belongs to the "Filler Activator" category (English category name Filler Activator), with the official full name "Multifunctional Filler Activator R100A"; it belongs to the hyperdispersant series. The title of the manual's technical data page reads verbatim "Multifunctional Filler Activator R100A"; the catalog line reads verbatim: "R100A: Multifunctional Filler Activator: activation treatment for inorganic powders and the like"; the official positioning line reads "inorganic powder activation treatment, multi-purpose"; the official mechanism field reads "interfacial activation". (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
[Product Introduction] verbatim: "Multifunctional Filler Activator R100A is a high-performance powder treatment agent integrating four functions in one: coupling agent, grinding aid, dispersant and coating agent. It is refined from amide compounds, a hyperdispersant and ammonium lauryl sulfate through a special emulsification reaction and advanced process. The product offers excellent interfacial activity, dispersibility, grinding aid performance and coating performance, and is widely used in the activation treatment of inorganic fillers, significantly improving the performance of inorganic fillers and organic polymer materials. The activation rate reaches over 98%, and it can significantly reduce the oil absorption value." (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
Application stage (the only applicable stage): item 1 of the manual's instructions reads verbatim "During the ore grinding process, add R100A to the ore (mineral powder) and grind it together with the ore (mineral powder)"; the official detail page's stage restriction reads "This product may only be added and used during the ore grinding (milling) process" — different from the "masterbatch production" and "powder surface coating" stages (the application stages of other grades in the same series; the values and specifications of this product are not interchangeable with them). (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
The three main components (verbatim from the documentation): "1. Amide compound 2. Ammonium lauryl sulfate 3. Hyperdispersant"; only the components are listed, while the structural formulas, ratios and role assignments of each component are not given — not drafted on its behalf. (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
- Improved grinding efficiency — "effectively reduces resistance during the grinding process, improves material flowability, improves powder fineness and uniformity, increases mill output, reduces energy consumption and lowers production costs".
- Enhanced dispersibility and compatibility — "reduces the interfacial tension between filler and plastic matrix, promotes uniform dispersion of the filler, and is suitable for a variety of plastic materials such as PE, PP, ABS, PVC and polyoxymethylene, with good compatibility".
- High-temperature stability and performance enhancement — "still exhibits excellent stability in high-temperature environments, can rapidly form stable chemical bonds, enhances the affinity between filler and resin matrix, and improves the strength, hardness, wear resistance and weather resistance of the composite".
- Green and environmentally friendly — "contains no harmful substances and meets environmental protection requirements".
- Four functions in one — coupling agent / grinding aid / dispersant / coating agent, "one treatment, four effects occurring simultaneously".
- Stage-lock reminder — "addition is limited to the grinding stage"; before mass production, a small-scale trial with one's own mineral powder and mill conditions is recommended.
02Formulation system & mechanism of action
System and process (verbatim from the manual): "It is refined from amide compounds, a hyperdispersant and ammonium lauryl sulfate through a special emulsification reaction and advanced process. The product offers excellent interfacial activity, dispersibility, grinding aid performance and coating performance"; the official detail page's process statement reads "It is refined from amide compounds, a hyperdispersant and ammonium lauryl sulfate through a special emulsification reaction — with an activation rate of over 98%, significantly reducing the oil absorption value and grinding energy consumption; addition is limited to the grinding stage." (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
Four functions in one (four effects in one): coupling agent / grinding aid / dispersant / coating agent — all occurring simultaneously during the grinding stage when ground together with the ore: grinding aid and resistance reduction, interfacial activation, dispersion improvement and coating protection. (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
Data boundaries: the test method / report for the activation rate, the quantified reduction in oil absorption value, and the quantitative parameters of chemical bond formation — none are provided on this grade's page; this page does not draft or infer them. The specific structures, ratios and role assignments of the three components (amide compound, ammonium lauryl sulfate, hyperdispersant) are not given in the documentation. (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
- Grinding aid — reducing grinding resistance"Effectively reduces resistance during the grinding process, improves material flowability, improves powder fineness and uniformity, increases mill output and reduces energy consumption".
- Coupling — interfacial activation"Still exhibits excellent stability in high-temperature environments, can rapidly form stable chemical bonds, and enhances the affinity between filler and resin matrix".
- Dispersion — reducing interfacial tension"Reduces the interfacial tension between filler and plastic matrix and promotes uniform dispersion of the filler".
- Coating — activation and reduction of oil absorption value"The activation rate reaches over 98% and it can significantly reduce the oil absorption value"; the treated filler can be widely used in plastics / rubber / coatings / papermaking.

| Safety data (MSDS type) | Not listed in the source materials (see the "Storage and precautions" row for protective items) |
Reading notes: ① The viscosity item is not given a unit in the handbook and is stated as mPa·s on the detail page; transcribed per source layer; ② Differences in notation between layers for values such as density / pH are typographic normalization, and the values are consistent; ③ The test method and report for the activation rate ≥98%, as well as quantitative data on the decrease in oil absorption value, are not provided; ④ The values in the table are as recorded in the source materials, and a small-scale trial is recommended for verification before use. (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
04Recommended dosage window
The handbook's [Instructions for Use] item 3, verbatim: "Recommended addition ratio: three to ten parts per thousand (general calcium carbonate 3‰-7‰, talc 8‰-10‰, barium sulfate 5‰-7‰, titanium dioxide 3‰-5‰)"; the official dosage field uses the same basis (the two agree). The official product detail page presents the same range in percentage notation as "grinding addition range (0.3–1.0%)", and sets the figures per the four powder types. The denominator basis is not stated in the source materials — this page transcribes as-is and does not supply a denominator.
| Scenario | Dosage | Conditions & notes |
|---|---|---|
| General calcium carbonate | 3‰ - 7‰ | Same basis in the handbook and the official field; denominator basis not stated in the source materials |
| Talc | 8‰ - 10‰ | Same basis in the handbook and the official field; denominator basis not stated in the source materials |
| Barium sulfate | 5‰ - 7‰ | Same basis in the handbook and the official field; denominator basis not stated in the source materials |
| Titanium dioxide | 3‰ - 5‰ | Same basis in the handbook and the official field; denominator basis not stated in the source materials |
The overall range is "three to ten parts per thousand" (the same range is written in percentage notation on the official detail page as 0.3–1.0%), set per powder type. Process adjustment sentence (handbook item 2): "Adjust the addition amount and grinding time according to the actual processing technology and equipment requirements." This grade has no "thickness–dosage" directional clause. The denominator basis is not stated in the source materials — unlike other grades in the same series (each of which states its own denominator), so align on the denominator before discussing dosage.
To be verified: ① The dosage denominator basis is not stated in the source materials (relative to ore / mineral powder mass) — not noted in the source materials; ② Examples of grinding process parameters (specific values for grinding temperature / time / equipment type) — only the single sentence "adjust the addition amount and grinding time"; ③ The above are as recorded in the source materials; for actual production, please conduct a small-scale trial in combination with your own mineral powder and mill conditions.
05Applications
Application fields (handbook verbatim): inorganic mineral powders "calcium carbonate, talc, barium sulfate, titanium dioxide, etc."; the treated filler can be widely used in plastics / rubber / coatings / papermaking. Transcribed as follows.
- Plastics
- "Polypropylene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester and other resin composites"; a separate feature sentence records "suitable for PE, PP, ABS, PVC, polyoxymethylene and many other plastic materials, with good compatibility" — the two lists coexist, transcribed without altering either.
- Rubber
- "Enhances the bonding force between rubber and filler, improving the performance of rubber products."
- Coatings
- "Improves pigment dispersibility and enhances the adhesion, abrasion resistance and water resistance of the coating film."
- Papermaking
- "Improves paper strength and folding endurance."
- Point of use (stage lock)
- Added to the ore (mineral powder) during the ore grinding process and ground together with the ore (mineral powder); the detail page demonstrates this with a "stage lock": of the four nodes — crushing / grinding / powder discharge and storage / downstream compounding — only the grinding stage accepts feeding.
- Downstream compounding (detail page layer)
- "Downstream compounding recommended at 3:2; grinding addition 3–10‰ set per powder type"; compounding balance example "stearic acid 3 kg + R100A 2 kg (taking calcium powder / mineral powder as an example · mass ratio 3 : 2)"; "strongly recommend combining with stearic acid: after compounding, the reduction in oil absorption value is significantly greater than with stearic acid alone; higher coating ratio and better dispersion; used alone, it also maintains excellent coupling".
Field issues & application examples (as recorded in the source material)
| Field issue | What the source material states |
|---|---|
| At which stage should it be added? | The only applicable stage is the ore grinding (milling) process: added to the ore (mineral powder) and ground together with the ore; "when ground together with the ore, it maximizes its grinding-aid and activation performance". It cannot be used interchangeably with other stages such as masterbatch production or powder surface coating. |
| How much to add? | Three to ten parts per thousand: general calcium carbonate 3‰-7‰, talc 8‰-10‰, barium sulfate 5‰-7‰, titanium dioxide 3‰-5‰; adjust the addition amount and grinding time according to the actual processing technology and equipment requirements. The denominator basis is not stated in the source materials, so align on the denominator before discussing. |
| Should stearic acid be added? | The official detail page recommends: when the modified powder is used downstream in plastics, "strongly recommend combining with stearic acid" — recommended compounding mass ratio 3:2 (stearic acid 3 kg + R100A 2 kg, taking calcium powder / mineral powder as an example); "after compounding, the reduction in oil absorption value is significantly greater than with stearic acid alone; higher coating ratio and better dispersion; used alone, it also maintains excellent coupling". This compounding recommendation appears at the official detail page layer, and is subject to the technical documents accompanying the shipment and written confirmation from the product side. |
| What is the activation rate? | "Activation rate reaches 98% or above, and it can significantly reduce the oil absorption value" (recorded identically in the handbook and the detail page). The test method and report are not provided in the source materials, and this page does not supply them. |
06How it differs from related grades
Three axes that demarcate the three grades of the same series (R100A / R100 / R101A): category field, stage of use, dosage basis — the three are each independent and are not interchangeable codes; values are not inter-convertible, and compositions are not interchangeable. Comparison as follows:
| Dimension | R100A | R100 | R101A |
|---|---|---|---|
| Category field | Filler activator (Filler Activator) | Coupling-type hyperdispersant | Coating agent |
| Main components | Amide compound / ammonium lauryl sulfate / hyperdispersant | Siloxane / ammonium lauryl sulfate / hyperdispersant | Polysiloxanes with active hydroxyl groups and polysiloxanes with active ether groups, high-molecular-weight polyols |
| Appearance · pH | Milky white liquid · 7.2-8 | Milky white liquid · 6.8-7.0 | White paste-like liquid (inorganic pigment version) · 6.8-7 |
| Stage of use | Added only during ore milling (grinding) (co-milled with the ore) | Filled masterbatch production (including the direct milling treatment method) | Surface treatment at the pigment production stage (added to the slurry / pulverization step / secondary cooling water) |
| Dosage basis | Three to ten per thousand (set by powder type: 3‰-7‰, etc.) | 0.5% - 3% of the mass of the inorganic filler | 0.1%-3% (by powder weight) + 0.5-2.0% (official field, both retained) |
| Packaging · Shelf life | PE plastic drum 1t/drum · 24 months | 20kg / 1000kg plastic drum · not stated in the materials | Not listed on this grade's page · not listed |
Reading notes: ① Same series ≠ same use (milling activation / masterbatch production / powder coating, three stages); ② Dosages are not inter-convertible (three bases; any mutual conversion or comparison of magnitude has no basis); ③ Compositions are not interchangeable (the three compositions each belong to different chemical systems); ④ With respect to the flame retardant side: no correspondence is established in the materials — do not infer, do not link.

08FAQ
What is R100A used for?
A multifunctional filler activator — a high-performance powder treatment agent that combines four functions in one: coupling agent, grinding aid, dispersant and coating agent; used for the activation treatment of inorganic fillers (mineral powders such as calcium carbonate, talc, barium sulfate and titanium dioxide), with an activation rate of over 98%.
At which stage is it used?
It is added for use only during the ore milling (grinding) process, grinding together with the ore (mineral powder); its use cannot be interchanged with that of other stages such as masterbatch production or powder coating.
How much is added?
Three to ten per thousand: general calcium carbonate 3‰-7‰, talc 8‰-10‰, barium sulfate 5‰-7‰, titanium dioxide 3‰-5‰; adjust the dosage and grinding time according to the processing process and equipment. The denominator basis is not specified in the materials.
How is it distinguished from R100 and R101A?
The three grades are all members of the hyperdispersant series but have different categories: R100A is a filler activator (only for ore milling); R100 is a coupling-type hyperdispersant (filled masterbatch production); R101A is a coating agent (coating at the pigment production stage). Composition, stage and dosage basis are each independent; values are not interchangeable.
What are the packaging and storage conditions?
Packaging: PE plastic drum, 1t/drum; store in a cool, dry place, avoid direct sunlight and high-temperature environments, and avoid contact with corrosive substances such as acids and alkalis; shelf life is 24 months from the date of production. (Data source: product handbook / official product data)
