MATTOFUSE is an engineered contoured calcium carbonate designed to control how light behaves inside a coating film. Using precisely contoured particle geometry, MATTOFUSE alters light reflection at the micro-scale, gently disrupting specular reflection to p...

Common questions about Mattofuse in paints & coatings applications
MATTOFUSE's contoured particle geometry creates controlled micro-irregularities that gently disrupt specular reflection, diffusing light uniformly to produce a soft, smooth matte without harsh scattering, chalkiness, or colour dulling.
MATTOFUSE achieves equivalent or superior matting efficiency to DE-based silica at similar loading levels, with lower yellowness index, improved brightness, and complete absence of RCS health risk.
Yes, MATTOFUSE is specifically engineered as a silica-free, safer alternative to precipitated and DE-based matting agents in water-based interior and exterior emulsion paints.
No, because matting is achieved through optical geometry rather than light absorption, MATTOFUSE maintains full colour development, tint strength, and film brightness without shade distortion.
Typical dosage is 3–6% by weight, replacing 5% DE silica at equivalent loading levels in mid-to-high PVC interior emulsion paints.
