Organophilic Bentonite Rheology Additive
Organophilic Bentonite Rheology Additive (CAS 1302-78-9, molecular formula Bentonite) is a coatings raw material used by paint, ink and adhesive formulators who need consistent dispersion, opacity and rheology from drum to drum. China Chemicals supplies it at Montmorillonite 90% min in pack sizes from 1 kg through to 500 kg Pallet, so laboratory trial quantities and full production volumes can be sourced from the same specification.
It is also traded as Organoclay, Bentonite Clay, Montmorillonite. Every consignment ships with a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and the current Safety Data Sheet, and material is stored and picked under stock rotation so you receive product well inside its shelf life.
Typical applications
- Anti-settling and anti-sag additive in solvent-borne paint
- Thixotrope in adhesives, sealants and greases
- Suspension aid in drilling mud and grouting
- Rheology control in printing ink
- Binder in foundry moulding sand
