Grease Organoclay Bentonite

Grease Organoclay Bentonite

We give you a comprehensive application guide for organic bentonite applied to grease. At present, we have a total of 4 models of organic bentonite applied to grease, namely organic bentonite, CP34, CP 992, CP-TS 100, CP-MPZ. These 4 models of Grease Organoclay Bentonite are mainly recommended according to different base oils.

Our Grease Organoclay Bentonite CP250A can be mainly applied to greases with synthetic oil as the base oil, such as industrial greases, food-grade greases, and of course also in wood paint coatings, and has very good performance.

At the same time, CP-MPZ and CP-992 are better used in synthetic oils. We recommend that you do a basic test before using it to determine its addition amount and matching degree, and then purchase and use it in large quantities. When you use CP250A in grease, it will show a more efficient thickening ability and light-colored gel effect, and it does not need to be pre-gelled.

It has extremely strong stability at high temperatures and has very wide compatibility and matching with other base oils. When you want to show its efficient thickening effect, you only need to add 7%~10% of organic bentonite to the grease to significantly improve the thickening of the grease. At the same time, you can directly add organic bentonite dry powder to the formula, which can greatly simplify your production process and save your time cost.

In terms of compatibility, Grease Organoclay Bentonite can show good matching with synthetic oils such as mineral oil, polyester oil, and vegetable oil as base oils. In the effect of some light-colored transparent gels, it avoids the color pollution caused by traditional additives, has a very strong and relatively high transparency, and is very in line with market expectations.

The appearance of organic bentonite is light yellow powder, its particle size is very fine, the moisture is generally controlled within 3.5%, and the ignition loss is generally between 31% and 32%.

In terms of specific applications, we have suggested that you add dry powder directly. We suggest that you pre-treat the base oil and heat it to 60~70℃. This temperature can effectively improve its dispersion efficiency. Then gradually add organic bentonite to the entire formula. We recommend that its addition amount be between 7% and 10%, and then stir it at high speed. Generally, about 10 minutes is the best.

At the same time, if you can add some polar activators, such as acetone, acetone and propylene carbonate, the effect will be better. Then stir it for 25~30 minutes, and then do a homogenization treatment at the end, that is, high shear dispersion to improve the efficiency of the gel, and finally filter, degas and package. Usually our packaging is 25 kg per bag. In a 20-foot cabinet, we can load 18 tons without a pallet. If you need to bring a pallet, it is generally about 16 tons. You may ask, what is the difference between organic bentonite CP250a and traditional organic bentonite?

As we mentioned above, its biggest advantage is that it does not require pre-gelling. It can be added directly as dry powder. At the same time, the color of the gel is very light and will not affect the appearance of the final product. At the same time, its rheological properties are also very good.

If you encounter uneven dispersion of bentonite during use, we recommend that you directly perform high shear stirring, extend the dispersion time to more than 20 minutes, or even more than 30 minutes, and add activators strictly in proportion, which will further improve your efficiency in using Grease Organoclay Bentonite.

Some users also ask when using it: Is Grease Organoclay Bentonite suitable for biodegradable grease? Our answer is yes, it can give you a satisfactory answer.

Because organic bentonite and CP250a have strong compatibility with environmentally friendly base oils such as vegetable oil, it meets the environmental protection requirements of grease. For packaging, we can package it according to your requirements, usually divided into 25 kg per bag or 50 pounds per bag, and customized packaging can also be carried out. The packaging bags we use are moisture-proof kraft paper bags with PE lining, which have strong moisture-proof properties.

In summary, through years of production and research and development, we have simplified the process and reduced the cost of our Grease Organoclay Bentonite in grease, and it has strong stability at high temperatures. It is a thickening rheological agent that meets your needs for producing high-quality grease.

If you hope that organic bentonite can bring positive benefits to your formulation in grease production, please contact our sales and we will provide you with free samples for testing. Finally, we want to tell you that CP250a’s Grease Organoclay Bentonite, after purification and modification, is an excellent rheological additive specially designed for synthetic oil, diesel, and mineral oil. Its thixotropic properties and anti-settling properties, even at high temperature stability, have strong thickening rheological properties.
