I. Product Overview:
BENTONE® 34 is an organic bentonite additive suitable for low-to-medium polarity organic solvent coating systems.
II. Product Characteristics:
Composition: Modified bentonite
Appearance: Off-white to slightly grayish pink/yellow/white or light cream powder
Density: 1.7 g/cm³
Moisture Content: ≤3.0%
III. Application Areas:
Binders, anti-corrosion coatings, automotive refinish paints, asphalt coatings, polishing agents, coil coatings, appliance coatings, greases, thick-film coatings, industrial coatings, interior/exterior wall paints, fillers, release agents, paint strippers, plastic sols, primers, topcoat fillers, printing inks, sound absorbers, wood finishes, paraffin wax.
IV. Key Properties:
1. Increases viscosity.
2. Ideal thixotropic properties.
3. Excellent storage stability.
4. Improves flow and leveling.
5. Effectively reduces sagging in vertical applications and enhances penetration on porous substrates.
6. Prevents separation in thixotropic systems.
V. Application Methods:
When incorporating BENTONE® 34 into organic coating systems, high-shear dispersion equipment must be used for mixing and dispersing. Add a chemical activator to ensure complete activation and achieve optimal performance.
Method 1: Directly add to the resin/solvent mixture. High-speed disperse for 10 minutes. Add the chemical activator and high-speed disperse for another 10 minutes. Then add pigments and fillers and high-speed disperse for 15 minutes or longer.
Method 2: Add as a pregel (5-10% solids content).
First inject solvent into the mixing vessel. Add BENTONE® 34 and mix at high speed. Finally, add the chemical activator to optimize gelation.
During addition, the pregel is directly added to the resin/solvent mixture for high-speed dispersion. Pigments and fillers are then added and dispersed at high speed.
VI. Product Packaging:
25KG/bag
