The invention concerns a method for preparing low water uptake precipitated silicas, comprising successive steps which consist in: (a) producing an initial starter including a silicate, the silicate concentration in said starter, expressed in SiO2 equivalent, being less than 15 g/L; (b) bringing the medium pH to a value ranging between 7 and 8 by adding an acidifying agent, (c) in the resulting medium, simultaneously adding a silicate and an acidifying agent the respective amounts of silicate and acidifying agent added in time being specifically such that, during the entire addition (1) the reaction medium pH stays between 7 and 8, and (ii) the silicon concentration in the medium, expressed in SiO2 equivalent, stays below 35 g/L; (d) adding an acidifying agent in the medium resulting from step (c), so as to bring the medium to a pH ranging between 3 and 6.5; and (e) filtering the resulting aqueous silica dispersion, then drying the filter cake obtained at the end of the filtering step. The invention also concerns low water uptake silicas obtained by said method and their use, in particular for reinforcing silicones or polymer or elastomer matrices.

A process for the preparation of precipitated silica is disclosed. The precipitated silica has a refractive index from about 1.440 to about 1.450, among other properties. The silica is prepared by a method including; a first step of using an initial feedstock of water, an electrolytic salt and a fraction of the total amount of silicate employed; a second step including preneutralizing the feedstock with the acidifying agent until about 50 to 85% of the amount of M2O present has been neutralized; a third step including introducing into the preneutralized feedstock the remaining fraction of alkali metal silicate in aqueous solution and the acidifying agent, under conditions such that the pH of the reaction medium remains substantially constant and from about 8.6 to about 9.6; a fourth step including, after the addition of silicate is stopped, in continuing the addition of acidifying agent until the medium reaches a pH of about 7 to 8; a fifth step including, after maturation, in continuing the acidification of the reaction medium until a silica broth with a pH of about 3.7 to 4.6 is obtained; wherein the consolidation ratio CR CR = Total amount of silicate employed , expressed as SiO 2 Total amount of silicate in the feedstock , expressed as SiO 2 of the process is less than or equal to 7, and the separated and dried silica is ground, if necessary, until an average particle diameter d50 from about 6 to about 13 &mgr;m is obtained.
