Coatings Industry
Special Features and Benefits
After being stirred into the coating system, the additive generates a three-dimensional network structure. The resulting thixotropic flow behavior is highly suited for preventing sedimentation and syneresis and increasing the anti-sagging properties without impairing leveling. The additive is liquid and therefore easy to handle. It is not necessary to specifically adjust the pH value or control the temperature during incorporation.
Recommended Use
RHEOBYK-D 420 is preferably used as an anti-settling additive to produce aqueous pigment, filler and matting agent concentrates. The additive's excellent shear thinning effect is advantageous for dosing such concentrates because of their low viscosity. In addition, it is suitable for controlling the thixotropic flow behavior and for optimizing the anti-sagging properties and leveling.
Recommended Levels
0.3-1.5% additive (as supplied) based on the total formulation to prevent settling.
0.3-3 % to prevent sagging.
The above recommended levels can be used for orientation. Optimal levels are determined through a series of laboratory tests.
