CLiQFLOW® LP

CLiQFLOW® LP by CLiQ SwissTech is an organically modified smectite. It acts as a bentonite clay based rheological additive. It requires a high shear activation process and is recommended for low- to medium polar non-aqueous systems used in the coatings or ink industry. It exhibits controlled shear thinning flow behavior to non-aqueous formulations. It provides excellent sag resistance and improves storage stability, like anti settling behavior. It processes through a pre-gel preparation stage. CLiQFLOW® LP is recommended to use an organoclay concentration of 5-10% by weight and to use a polar activator like ethanol/water, acetone/water, propylene carbonate etc. to enhance the product efficiency. Recommended usage level is 0.2-0.5%. It has a shelf life of 48 months.
