CP-180 organoclay is an organo clay rheological additive (modified montmorillonite) designed specifically for use in solvent-based systems such as organic inks with intermediate and low polarity ranges.
Properties
Composition Organic derivative of a montmorillonite clay
Appearance Fine powder, white
Moisture content (105℃,2hr) ≤3.5%
Loss on ignition (1000℃) 29%-32%
Bulk density 0.53g/cm3
Fineness (<74μm, %) ≥98%
Exerts gelling efficiency over a wide range of intermediate and low polarity Easy dispersing The gel is colorless and of high clarity Produces reproducible thixotropic consistency over a wide temperature range Imparts particle suspension, sag resistance without impairing flow and leveling, preventing hard settling of pigment and fillers
CP-180 is utilized for the following applications: lubricant and drilling mud
The use of CP-180 disperses under high shear and necessitates the use of a polar activator (30%-40%) for maximum efficiency.
It is not necessary to use heat to achieve good dispersion.
Typically, addition levels range between 0.2 and 2.0 percent.
It is necessary to use a polar activator (95 percent Ethanol or 95 percent Methanol).
Normally, the addition level of polar activator is recommended to be 30-40% of the weight of CP-180.
The Material Safety Data Sheets contain all safety information.
