No, it's basically just sodium silicate and fumed silica. The patent mentions lots of other things you could hypothetically substitute or add, but gives no indication that they've tried any of them — they just wanted to write the patent as broadly as possible. Some of the hypothetical ingredients mentioned in the patent don't seem to actually exist.
