Organoclay Rheology Additive CAS 1318-93-0 Product Detail Page
(For Alibaba International & Official Website)
Product Overview
Organoclay Rheology Additive CAS 1318-93-0 is organophilic modified montmorillonite layered silicate manufactured through organic cation exchange modification.
After surface organophilic treatment, the product shows good compatibility with various solvent-based resin systems. With suitable activator and shearing force, the stacked silicate layers are exfoliated to form a reversible three-dimensional gel network inside paint and ink. The network structure offers stable thixotropy, delivering prominent thickening, anti-settling and anti-sagging effects. It prevents pigments and functional fillers from sedimentation during long-term storage, eliminates sagging issues during spraying, brushing and roller coating. Meanwhile, it balances leveling performance and improves suspension stability of coating systems. It is an efficient inorganic rheology modifier for industrial paints and printing inks.
Product Properties
The product is fine off-white powder with complete layered crystal structure. It works well in aliphatic, aromatic and ester solvent systems. Easy to activate under high-speed dispersion. Low impurity content will not affect gloss, color and surface finish of coatings. Excellent thermal stability adapts to common paint production and storage temperature. The formed thixotropic network has good reversibility, with stable rheological effect after repeated stirring.
Core Advantages
Organophilic modification. Great compatibility with solvent-based paint and ink formulations.
Excellent thixotropic property. Reversible gel network achieves thickening effect without excessive viscosity increase.
Powerful anti-settling performance. Effectively suspend pigments and fillers, avoid hard sediment.
Outstanding anti-sagging capacity. Support thick film construction, prevent vertical surface sagging.
Good leveling balance. Avoid brush marks while controlling sagging.
Less influence on coating gloss and transparency compared with many thickeners.
Main Applications
Organoclay acts as anti-settling thixotrope for solvent-based industrial coatings and printing inks. Typical applications: anti-corrosion industrial paint, marine coatings, automotive refinish paint, wood coatings, solvent-based printing ink, architectural solvent paint, heavy-duty protective coatings, putty and solvent-based adhesive systems.
Usage Guidance
Add organoclay at the early dispersion stage together with solvents.
Add polar activator (ethanol, propylene carbonate etc.) to achieve full activation.
Recommended dosage: 0.5% – 2.5% based on total formulation weight.
Adopt high-speed disperser with sufficient shearing to realize layer exfoliation.
Carry out small formula test to adjust dosage and activation process before mass production.
Packing & Storage
Standard package: 25kg kraft bag with inner PE liner. Samples are available on request.
Keep tightly sealed after opening. Store in cool, dry and ventilated warehouse. Keep away from moisture and direct sunlight. Avoid heavy extrusion during transportation to prevent powder agglomeration.
