Hectorite clay application

Organoclay | Organophilic Clay CP-2 also named amine treated Bentonite.

In diesel oil based fluids,organophilic clay viscosifier CP-2 are used to increase carrying capacity and suspension properties, providing support for weight materials and improved cutting removal. Organophilic bentonite also aids in filter-cake formation and filtration control.

Technical index highlights:
 Appearance: Presented as fine and uniform white powder.
 Purity Guarantee: volatile matter ≤3.5% at 105℃, ensuring the product is pure.
Excellent particle size: ≥95% passing through 0.076mm sieve, ensuring fineness.
 Thermal stability: Scorch loss (1000℃) ≤38%, showing excellent thermal stability.

Efficient use method:
This product can be quickly dispersed and dissolved in organic solvents and resin systems, significantly increasing system viscosity and giving thixotropy. In order to achieve the best dispersion and thickening effect, it is recommended to use one of the following two methods:

1. Pre-gel addition method:
 Reasonable control of pre-gel content, recommended 8% to 10%, to balance the dispersion effect and work efficiency.

 Use solvents (such as xylene) mixed with the appropriate amount of organic bentonite, slowly put in the medium-speed mixing, and then add ethanol / water (95/5) mixture, high shear dispersion for 15-30 minutes, the formation of uniform pre-gel.

This pre-gel can be added at any stage of the paint mixing process, and the effect is especially good when added before grinding.

2. Dry powder directly into the method:
 directly into the organic bentonite dry powder solvent and resin mixing system, high-speed dispersion for 5-10 minutes.

 Then add polar activator (such as ethanol or acetone containing 5% water), continue to high-speed dispersion for 15-20 minutes to optimize the dispersion and thickening effect.
 Add other additives, pigments and fillers as required to complete the formulation adjustment.
