Organoclay benefits

The benefits of organoclay in coatings are substantial, contributing to improved performance and application efficiency. One major advantage comes from its method of incorporation: when pre – gel is gradually added to the main coating formulation and stirred at 300 – 500 rpm for 30 to 45 minutes, organoclay disperses evenly throughout the system.

This uniform presence enables organoclay to significantly enhance the coating’s thixotropic properties, stop pigment from settling, and upgrade both storage stability and workability.

In thick – film coatings, for example, the addition of 1% – 3% organoclay successfully prevents sagging when applied on vertical surfaces, all while ensuring the coating retains excellent smoothness and richness, underscoring its valuable benefits.
