Anti Settling Agent Superior Suspension Performance
CAMP-SHINNING's organoclay anti-settling agents prevent pigment settling and maintain uniform suspension in coatings, inks, drilling fluids, and industrial formulations. Trusted by global manufacturers for over 20 years.
What is an Anti-Settling Agent?
An anti-settling agent is a rheology modifier that prevents the separation and settling of solid particles in liquid formulations. CAMP-SHINNING's organoclay anti-settling agents create a three-dimensional gel network that suspends particles uniformly throughout the medium.
Our modified montmorillonite clay provides exceptional thixotropic properties, ensuring stable suspension during storage while allowing easy application when shear is applied.

Performance Comparison
Usage Guidelines Optimal Incorporation Methods
Proper incorporation techniques ensure maximum anti-settling performance and optimal rheological properties in your formulations.
Standard Incorporation Method
Pre-mix with Solvent
Slowly add organoclay to a portion of the solvent under moderate agitation. Use 20-30% of total solvent volume.
Add Polar Activator
Add polar activator (acetone/water 95/5) at 20-30% of organoclay weight. Mix for 5-10 minutes.
High Shear Mixing
Apply high shear mixing for 15-25 minutes to fully activate the organoclay and develop gel structure.
Add Remaining Components
Gradually add remaining solvents, resins, and additives while maintaining adequate mixing.
Typical Dosage Levels
Important Notes
- • Always add organoclay to solvent, never the reverse
- • Ensure complete wetting before adding activator
- • Higher temperatures (60-70°C) improve dispersion
- • CP-EZ grades require no polar activator
