Organoclay for Solvent-Based Systems Used in Paint and Ink YH-908A

Product DescriptionModel NO.: YH-908AType: High Gelling EfficiencyColor: WhiteColour: WhitePackage: 25kg kraft paper bagOrigin: Huzhou, ZhejiangClassification: Chemical AdditivesAppearance: PowderQuality: IndustrialTrademark: YuhongYH-908A is an organoclay (tetraallkyl ammonium bentonite) for solvent-based systems of low to medium polarity.  1.    Advantages:    High gelling efficiency over low to medium polarity organic liquids.   Ideal thixotropy ,anti-sagging,anti-sediment property.   Imparts particle suspension, preventing hard settling of pigment and fillers.   Exerts strong film reinforce action in organic binder systems.   Good dispersion performance.  2.    Typical Properties: ColorAppearanceDensityMoisture(@105ºC,2hrs)Fineness through 200 meshLoss on Ignition( @1000ºC )LightWhiteFree Flowing Powder1.67g/cm3≤3.5%≥98%≤35%  3.    Typical Applications: Acrylic paintSolvent epoxy paintAlkyd paintZinc-rich paintBaking paintNitro lacquerFoundry paintAdhesive Polyester paintLubricating greaseRoad paintCosmeticsSilica paintInks                 4.    Incorportions:   YH-908A belongs to the conventional type of organoclay group, which requires mechanical energy, shear forces applied with a goods dispersion equipment, and a chemical (polar) activator to reach the proper level of delamination of the organoclay platelet stacks.   Polar Activator: Dosage of polar activator (such as 95%ethanol, 95%methanol, 95%acetone or propylene carbonate) is 30%-60% by weight of YH-908A.   It is always recommended to determine the proper level of addition by experiment. Either defect or excess of chemical activator would result in poorer viscosity development. 5.    Recommended Levels:   The amount of YH-908A rheology modifier required depends upon the type of organic system and the degree of thickening or other properties desired. Addition levels are typically between 0.2%-2.0% based on the total formulation weight. 6.    International Countertypes: Bentone®38, Claytone®40, Tixogel®VP-A
