5 ways choose organoclay bentonite additive

We list 5 factors for you to make a correct option.

1. Organoclayis thickener bentonite in paint and coating But too high viscosity or too low viscosity is not good for paint and coatings. So, a grade of organoclay with proper thickening ability is suitable for your paint formulation.
2. To make pre-gel, or add thixotropic agent directly in powder?If your manufacturing procedure includes pre-gel, you can select a conventional grade; but if your producing procedure requires to add organic bentonite clay directly in powder, you should select an easy-dispersing grade.
3. Polar activator.Normally, in low and medium solvents or solvent mixture, polar activator is required for conventional grades of organoclay rheological additive to help dispersing. Even for some easy-dispersing grades of organoclay, a small dosage of polar activator is helpful for rheological additive to optimize best performance
4. Which solvent is used in your formulation?Each solvent has solvent polarity, non-polarity, or low polarity,or medium polarity or high polarity. Each grade of organoclay has its suitable polarity range of solvent. For example, CP-180 and CP-10 are suitable for low polaritysolvent; and CP-27 and CP-27A are suitable for medium to high polarity. Customer may read TDS of organoclay to know its suitable polarity range and then select correct grade for your formulation.
5. Some paints,coatings, like finishing, gloss paint, have very high requirement for particle fineness. In this case, you must choose a grade of organoclay treated organobentonitewith high dispersing fineness. Customers can check organoclay’s dispersing particle size and select a grade with enough particle fineness.
