Organoclay modified clay

For formulators seeking technical flexibility without compromising on efficiency, organoclay modified clays offer a smart solution for solvent-based systems.

Designed to thrive in aliphatic and mixed aliphatic/aromatic solvents, they adapt seamlessly to varying polarity requirements, covering low, low-to-medium, and medium-to-high polarity ranges with ease. This adaptability extends to activation methods: whether you prefer the familiarity of traditional organoclay activation protocols or the time-saving convenience of second-generation, no-pre-activation dispersion, these clays deliver.

Achieving consistency in your main formulations is hassle-free—basic mechanical processes like grinding, shearing, or milling are all it takes to ensure even integration.

And when your application demands it, chemical activation using polar solvents allows for further customization, making these organoclays a versatile asset in any formulator’s toolkit.

Organoclay is the commercially available organically modified clay mineral used as a rheology modifier and anti-settling additive in oil-based systems including drilling fluids, solvent-based coatings, and lubricating greases; full product specifications are at organoclay — product specifications and application guide. The organophilic clay surface chemistry, dispersion method, and compatibility with different base oils and solvents are explained in organophilic clay — surface chemistry and industrial applications.
