Super easy to disperse, wide applications, strong thickening capability, high transparence, no need for polar activator
FRGEL 170 is an organoclay (bentonite) rheological additive . It is utilized in solvent based systemsincluding low to inter mediate till higher polarity range of organic liquids, it is working as a thixotropic agent and thickener in paints, inks and adhesives .
1.Typical Properties
Composition: Organic derivative of bentonite
Color: very light cream
Form: Free flowing powder
Loss on Ignition, (LOI)% : 37 Max
Particle size at complete dispersion: 1um
2. Advantages:
Easy development of rheology , high gelling efficiency and non need polar activator,and enable post correct. It gives great plant flexibility and more efficiency and simplifies postcorrection of viscosity and sag.
3. Applications:
FRGEL 170 can be used in inks, paints ,sealant and adhesives, cosmetics andgrease.
4. Incorporation
FRGEL 170 easily disperses under low shear. FRGEL 170 does not require pre-gelling and can be added directly into the system, Use levels for FRGEL 170 depend on the requirements of system and the degree of viscosity development required, normally around 0.1-2.0% by total system weight.
