RHEOBYK-420 is a liquid rheology additive for aqueous and water-reducible coating systems, designed to improve anti-sagging and anti-settling properties. It is especially suited for manufacturing aqueous pigment concentrates and causes thixotropic flow behavior. Post-addition is possible.

Bermocoll® E230FQ is a non-ionic, water-soluble cellulose ether that improves the consistency, stability, and water retention of water-based products.

DISPERBYK® 199 is a VOC-free wetting and dispersing additive designed for aqueous coatings, adhesives, and pigment concentrates. It stabilizes both organic and inorganic pigments, offering high pigment loading and improving gloss. This additive reduces viscosity and enhances performance in waterborne coatings, adhesives, and sealants, making it suitable for wood and leather substrates. DISPERBYK® 199 ensures excellent dispersion and is ideal for waterborne wood coatings and adhesives.

Laponite RDS is a rheology additive based on synthetic phyllosilicate for aqueous systems. It improves the rheological properties in the low shear range.

Optigel CK is a rheology additive based on activated phyllosilicate, designed for aqueous systems and mineral pre-mix mortars. It imparts thixotropic flow behavior, high sagging resistance, and anti-settling properties. The product offers excellent processability, storage stability, and compatibility, with high electrolyte tolerance. Suitable for waterborne coatings and a variety of cleaning applications.

RHEOBYK-T 1010 VF is a VOC-free associative thickener (HEUR) for aqueous systems, designed to generate Newtonian flow behavior.

DISPERBYK® 184 is a wetting and dispersing additive for aqueous coating systems and aqueous pigment concentrates containing resin. It functions as a wetting agent and dispersant, reducing viscosity and providing good steric stabilization. This additive is ideal for waterborne coatings, ensuring improved dispersion and stability in aqueous formulations.

Aquatix® 8421 is a rheology-modifying wax emulsion based on modified EVA copolymer wax, designed to enhance effect pigment orientation in aqueous coatings. It functions as a thickener and rheology modifier, reducing mottling and improving the appearance of coatings. Suitable for use in waterborne coatings and wood coatings, it is compatible with substrates like wood and leather. Aquatix® 8421 belongs to the ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) waxes chemical family.

RHEOBYK 411 is a liquid rheology additive for low-polarity solvent-borne and solvent-free coating systems. It enhances anti-sagging and anti-settling properties by inducing highly thixotropic flow behavior. The product can be added post-process and is compatible with solventborne, solventless, and high solids coatings, as well as waterborne coatings. It functions as a rheology modifier and flame retardant and is part of the urea and urea derivatives chemical family.

Optigel WX is a rheology additive based on activated phyllosilicate, designed for aqueous systems and mineral pre-mix mortars to impart thixotropic flow behavior. It offers high sagging resistance, excellent adhesion properties, and anti-settling characteristics. Suitable for a wide range of applications, including wood coatings, flooring adhesives, acrylic sealants, kitchen cleaners, and waterborne coatings. It is hydrophilic, highly thixotropic, and provides excellent storage stability and electrolyte tolerance. Optigel WX is compatible with acrylates and works over a wide pH range. Available in powder form.

RHEOBYK-7420 ES is a hygroscopic product that should be stored dry. Minor cloudiness of the material that may occur during storage does not affect its rheological effectiveness. The specified storage stability upon dispatch applies when the product is handled correctly and stored in unopened original containers.
