Bentone SD® -2

by Elementis

Bentone SD® -2 by Elementis acts as a rheological additive for moderate to high polarity solvents ketones, esters, glycol ethers and alcohols, including polar systems with some aromatic solvents. It is an organic derivative of a bentonite clay.<br> <ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>It provides stable viscosity build, controls sag and pigment settling.</li> <li>It offers easy incorporation and eliminates need for pregel and chemical activator.</li> <li>It is a cost-effective replacement for conventional organoclay additives.</li> <li>It can be added as a powder to the millbase either before or after the pigment dispersion or during letdown. </li> <li>It disperses very easily, even under low shear conditions.</li> <li>Bentone SD® -2 is suitable for anti-corrosion paints, automotive finishes/primers, foundry paints, gravure printing inks, industrial finishes, inorganic zinc-rich coatings, maintenance coatings, NC lacquers/inks, vinyl paints.</li> <li>Recommended dosage level is 0.2-1%.</li> <li>It has a shelf life of 4 years.</li></ul>

Bentone SD® -1

by Elementis

Bentone SD® -1 by Elementis is a very easily dispersible, rheological additive for systems containing primarily aliphatic and other non-polar to medium-polarity solvents. It is an organic derivative of a bentonite clay. It provides viscosity increase, reduces sagging of coatings on vertical surfaces and prevents settling of pigments and fillers.<br> <ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>It is a cost-effective replacement for conventional organoclay additives.</li> <li>It eliminates the need for pregel and needs no chemical activator.</li> <li>It can be added at any point in the paint manufacturing process.</li> <li>Bentone SD® -1 is used in anti-corrosive paints, bituminous coatings, decorative alkyd paints, do-it-yourself paints, printing inks, primers, fillers, undercoats, traffic paints and wood stains.</li> <li>Recommended dosage level is 0.2-2% by weight of the system.</li> <li>It has a shelf life of 4 years.</li></ul>

Bentone SD® -3

by Elementis

Bentone SD® -3 by Elementis is an organic derivative of hectorite clay-based highly efficient rheological additive. It is designed for use in coating systems with a wide range of solvent polarities. It offers improved dispersibility characteristics and provides stable viscosity, controls sag and suspends pigments.<br> <ul style="padding-left: 40px;"><li>It disperses readily when added directly at the pigment-grinding stage and improves batch-to batch consistency.</li> <li>It does not require pre-gelling or a chemical activator, enabling fast plant throughput and efficient processing.</li> <li>It proves to be a cost-effective alternative to other organoclay rheological additives and fumed silica.</li> <li>Bentone SD® -3 is used for applications like acrylic paints, anti-corrosion maintenance paints, automotive finishes/primers, bituminous coatings, chlorinated rubber paints, decorative coatings, gravure printing inks, hammer finishes, industrial finishes, marine paints, oil paints, polyester paints, primers, and vinyl paints (high build).</li> <li>It is suitable for alkyd, epoxy and PU two pack-systems.</li> <li>Recommended dosage level is 0.2-1% by weight.</li> <li>It has a shelf life of 4 years.</li></ul>
