Spherical amorphous shaped silicates (such as KC-Siliperl AF 125 and Aluminium silicate 596 FA) were coated with different materials which were prepared from the hydrolysis-condensation products of organically modified silanes and metal alkoxides. The adsorption capacities of such silicates for different solvents; ethylacetate, toluene, n-hexane and cyclohexanone were investigated. It was found that KC-Siliperl AF 125 coated with IMEO (a commercial silane) adsorbed all the solvents better than Aluminium silicate 596 FA, and ethylacetate was adsorbed more than the other solvents.
