Organo clay rheological additive CP-EZ is a kind of organo clay rheological additive.Especially it is recommended to be applied in medium polarity and high polarity system including aromatic and aliphatic solvent.
Properties
Composition Organic derivative of a montmorillonite clay
Appearance Fine powder, light yellow
Moisture content (105℃,2hr) ≤3.5%
Loss on ignition (1000℃) 35%-37%
Bulk density 0.40~0.60g/cm3
Fineness (<74μm, %) ≥99%
Dispersion fineness (μm) ≤10
Advantages
- Easy dispersing, fine particle size
- High purity and low silica content
- High viscosity and thixotropy
- Eliminate polar activator in medium and high polarity solvent
- Wide application range. It can be applied in almost all resins and solvents
Application
CP-EZ is used in the following applications:
- Paints including decorative paint, industrial paint
- Grease
- Inks
- Oil drilling mud
- Cleaning agent
- Oil putty
Using
CP-EZ can be added directly in powder under high shear condition. The addition is recommended to be before grinding procedure to get the best effectiveness. Addition level is commonly 0.2%~1.0%. In low polarity system such as mineral spirit, if polar activator is added, better efficiency can be achieved.
Dosage of polar activator is suggested to be 10%-20% of CP-EZ by weigh
