Rheology Modifiers for Waterborne Paints
Enhance your water-based paint formulations with CAMP-SHINNING's premium organoclay rheology modifiers. Delivering superior thickening, anti-sagging, and suspension properties for professional coating applications.
Understanding Rheology Modifiers The Science Behind Paint Performance
Rheology modifiers are essential additives that control the flow and deformation behavior of waterborne paints. They determine how paint flows during application, its leveling properties, and resistance to sagging on vertical surfaces.
Thixotropic Behavior
Maintains high viscosity at rest, becomes fluid when stirred or applied
Anti-Sagging Properties
Prevents paint from running or dripping on vertical surfaces
Suspension Control
Keeps pigments and fillers uniformly distributed throughout storage

Usage Guidelines & Best Practices Optimize Performance in Your Formulations
Follow these professional guidelines to achieve optimal results with CAMP-SHINNING water-based organoclay rheology modifiers in your paint formulations.
Recommended Dosage Levels
Interior Wall Paints
Standard residential applications
Exterior Paints
Weather-resistant formulations
Industrial Coatings
Heavy-duty applications
Textured Finishes
High-build decorative coatings
Note: Start with the lower dosage range and adjust based on desired viscosity and application requirements. Higher dosages may be needed for specialized applications or extreme conditions.
Mixing Procedure
Pre-dispersion
Create a pre-dispersion with water at room temperature. Use high-speed mixing to ensure complete wetting.
Polar Activator
Add polar activator (typically acetone/water 95/5) at 20-30% of organoclay weight for enhanced performance.
High Shear Mixing
Mix at high speed for 15-20 minutes to achieve full development of rheological properties.
Paint Addition
Gradually add the organoclay dispersion to the paint formulation under moderate agitation.
Final Mixing
Continue mixing for 10-15 minutes to ensure uniform distribution and optimal rheological development.
