Product Introduction

TY-38 is an organoclay (tetraallkyl ammonium bentonite) for solvent-based systems of low to medium polarity.

1. Advantages:

☆ High gelling efficiency over low to medium polarity organic liquids.

☆ Ideal thixotropy ,anti-sagging,anti-sediment property.

☆ Imparts particle suspension, preventing hard settling of pigment and fillers.

☆ Exerts strong film reinforce action in organic binder systems.

☆ Good dispersion performance.

2. Typical Properties:

Color	Appearance	Density	Moisture (@105℃,2hrs)	Fineness through 200 mesh	Loss on Ignition ( @1000℃ )
Light White	Free Flowing Powder	1.67g/cm3	≤3.5%	≥98%	≤35%

3. Typical Applications:

●Acrylic paint	●Solvent epoxy paint
●Alkyd paint	●Zinc-rich paint
●Baking paint	●Nitro lacquer
●Foundry paint	●Adhesive
●Polyester paint	●Lubricating grease
●Road paint	●Cosmetics
●Silica paint	●Inks

4. Incorportions:

TY-83 belongs to the conventional type of organoclay group, which requires mechanical energy, shear forces applied with a goods dispersion equipment, and a chemical (polar) activator to reach the proper level of delamination of
the organoclay platelet stacks.

Polar Activator: Dosage of polar activator (such as 95%ethanol, 95%methanol, 95%acetone or propylene carbonate) is 30%-60% by weight of TY-83.

It is always recommended to determine the proper level of addition by experiment. Either defect or excess of chemical activator would result

in poorer viscosity development.

5. Recommended Levels:

The amount of TY-38 rheological additive required depends upon the type
of organic system and the degree of thickening or other properties desired. Addition levels are typically between 0.2%-2.0% based on the total
formulation weight.

6. International Countertypes: Bentone^®38, Claytone^®40, Tixogel^®VP-A
