The application method of organoclay dry powder adapts to different industrial needs to maximize its functionality.
In oil drilling, the most prevalent industry for organoclay application, dry powder is utilized to notably boost mud stability, giving the mud favorable rheological characteristics, efficient drilling lubrication, and resistance to corrosion.
When it comes to sewage treatment, organoclay dry powder, thanks to its strong adsorption capacity, is widely used in purifying sewage and wastewater.
The process includes adding the dry powder to the organic wastewater in a specific ratio, then stirring (or using microwave irradiation), allowing it to stand for sedimentation, separating solid and liquid, and releasing the treated water once it meets emission criteria. In composite materials, particularly in polymer and polymer modification areas, organoclay dry powder is applied.
Since the 1980s, many countries have widely used the technology of applying it as a rubber filler. Nano – scale organoclay dry powder is used in the nano – modification of some plastic (nylon, epoxy resin, polyolefin, etc.) and rubber products, which can effectively enhance their heat resistance, strength, and wear resistance.
The CP series of organic bentonite is mainly used in solvent-based and water-based paints, coatings, inks, lubricants, cosmetics, and oilfield drilling fluids.
Rheology modifiers are an organo clay (modified bentonite), designed especially for use in solvent based system. Organic Clay can be used widely in solvents from low polarity to medium-high polarity.

Organoclay dry powder application method
- High gelling efficiency,high viscosity
- Wide application range, it can be applied in all low, middle and high polarity range
- Produce reproducible thixotropic consistency over a wide temperature range
- Imparts particle suspension, preventing hard settling of pigment and fillers
- Exerts strong film reinforcing action in organic binder systems
Application of Organo clay
Organo clay is used in the following applications:
- Marine paint, Industrial paint, heavy-duty, anticorrosion paint such as bituminous coatings, epoxy paints, chlorinated rubber paints
- Grease
- Inks
Sealant
Using
Organo Bentonite disperses under high shear and requires a polar activator for best efficiency. Heat is not required to obtain good dispersion. Addition levels are typically in 0.2%~2.0%. Polar activator (95% Ethanol or 95% Methanol) is needed. Normally addition level of polar activator is recommended to be 45%~60% of CP-40 in weight. If in xylene system, addition level of polar activator is about 30%-40% of CP-40 in weight.
Pre-gel is made as below procedure.
- Charge solvent to mill
- Slowly add CP-40 (6-10% by weight of total pre-gel) to mill under agitation.
- Mix at high speed for 5 minutes.
- Add polar activator.
- Mix at high speed for 5 minutes.
Package
