Modified Bentonite CP-180B

Modified Bentonite CP-180B

CP-180B is an organo clay (modified montmorillonite), designed especially for use in solvent based system including intermediate and low polarity polarity range organic liquid. It is an improved grade of CP-180. It is more fine, and easier to be dispersed compared with CP-180.  

Organically Modified Bentonite

as an Efficient and Reusable rheological additive for  paints, grease,inks and oil drilling mud.

ORGANOCLAYS  are modified sodium bentonites (clay) manufactured by mixing a quaternary amine resulting in a hydrophobic material.

Properties | Modified Bentonite CP-180B

Composition                      Organic derivative of a montmorillonite clay

Appearance                       Fine powder, light yellow

Moisture content (105℃,2hr)         ≤3.5%

Loss on ignition (1000℃)            29%-32%

Bulk density                                0.53g/cm3

Fineness (<74μm, %)                ≥98

Advantages | Modified Bentonite CP-180B

  • Exerts gelling efficiency over a wide range of intermediate and low polarity
  • Easy dispersing
  • The gel is colourless and of high clarity
  • Produce reproducible thixotropic consistency over a wide temperature range
  • Imparts particle suspension, sag resistance without impairing flow and leveling, preventing hard settling of pigment and filler
  • Exerts strong film reinforcing action in organic binder systems

Application

 CP-180B is used in the following applications:

  • Transparent coatings
  • Lubricant Grease, ink, sealant
  • Cosmetic
  • Nano-composite
  • Replacement of fumed silica

Using

CP-180B disperses under high shear and requires a polar activator (30%~40%)  for best efficiency. Heat is not required to obtain good dispersion. Addition levels are typically in 0.2%~2.0%. Polar activator (95% Ethanol or 95% Methanol) is needed. Normally addition level of polar activator is recommended to be 30%~40% of CP-180B in weight.

Package

Kraft paper bag with PE liner or multi-wall paper sacks or customized. 25kg/bag or 22.68kg/bag or customized

 

What is modified bentonite?

This is a chemical additive used in paint coatings.It mainly helps paint and coating manufacturers achieve thickening and rheological properties of their products.At the same time, thixotropy is also a goal pursued by many manufacturers in this process. The addition of organic bentonite requires a step-by-step process, which means the order of addition is crucial.

We strongly recommend adding polar activators to organic bentonite to achieve full dispersion. Adequate dispersion can fully reflect the various properties of organic bentonite.  At the same time, our most recommended polar activator is propylene carbonate.

If you choose methanol or ethanol, this is also a polar activator. Our packaging is made of a waterproof P-bag, which is suitable for long-distance transportation and will not cause damage to the bag packaging.
