Usage Guidelines & Recommendations
Optimize your paint formulations with our recommended usage procedures and dosage guidelines for maximum performance.
Recommended Dosage
General Paint Systems
0.5% - 2.0% by total formulation weight depending on desired viscosity and thixotropic properties.
High-Solid Coatings
1.0% - 3.0% for enhanced anti-sagging properties in high-solid content formulations.
Primer Systems
0.5% - 1.5% for optimal flow control and anti-settling properties in primer formulations.
Polar Activator Requirements
For solvent-based systems, use polar activator (acetone/water 95/5 ratio):
- Activator dosage: 20-30% of organoclay weight
- Add after organoclay dispersion
- Mix thoroughly for 5-10 minutes
Mixing Procedure
Pre-heat Base Material
Heat base paint or resin to 60-70°C if conditions permit for better dispersion.
Add Organoclay
Slowly add organoclay while stirring at moderate speed. Mix for 5-10 minutes until fully wetted.
Add Polar Activator
For solvent systems, add polar activator and continue mixing for 5-10 minutes.
High-Shear Mixing
Use high-speed disperser or grinding equipment for 25-30 minutes to achieve optimal gel development.
Final Processing
Add remaining additives, deair, filter, and package. Allow gel time for full rheology development.
Important Notes
- • Avoid over-shearing which may break down gel structure
- • Store in dry conditions at 0-30°C temperature range
- • Use within 24 months from production date
