organoclay rheological additive | organoclay bentonite

Organoclay Rheological Additive  : We all know that the performance of organoclay rheological additive is to use organic cations such as ammonium salts to exchange with inorganic cations in montmorillonite or lithium montmorillonite, so as to obtain modified bentonite clay with perfect performance. Especially in terms of chemical properties, it has sufficient rheological properties, so we use it as a rheological agent. Its main goal is to control the fluidity of liquid and polymer and its viscosity.

Therefore, as a  organoclay rheological additive, it generally appears in the form of organic clay bentonite and organic lithium montmorillonite. Bentonite is a kind of clay made of montmorillonite as raw material, and its expansibility is generally produced in 2:1 containing silicate minerals.      li montmorillonite is a kind of bentonite with properties very similar to montmorillonite bentonite itself. When it is treated by exchange reaction and organic surfactant, bentonite or montmorillonite is organoclay, and organic clay makes it hydrophobic and oil removing, as well as strong thermal stability.

 At present, many production enterprises use organic bentonite extensively as a rheological additive in coatings, inks, cosmetics, drilling fluids, and plastics. They are particularly effective as abrupt thickening agents in volumetric and high solid content systems. Their relatives, friends, and properties enable them to have better performance than modified bentonite and fumed silica in general.

In order to provide good flowability and resistance to sagging in coatings and inks, while maintaining their good brushing performance during operation, or to improve their performance during the spraying process, we generally recommend using amounts within 0.5% to 4%.

Of course, there is a basic action in the application of grease, up to 10%. The main reason is that organic clay is used to provide structural protection against falling or extend the service life, so as to ensure that the entire grease maintains good anti settling and thixotropic properties during storage or use.

In recent years, the use of organic bentonite in cosmetics is also very common. For example, some cosmetics such as lotion and face cream, as well as nail polish, such modified organic bentonite is used, which makes the rheological properties suitable for product appearance and application more obvious.

Therefore, in cosmetics, it is mainly to help this formula produce better rheology properties.

So currently, the main export and sales of organic bentonite produced by Camp Shinning ( bentonite organoclay gels ingredients supplier ) in are still in drilling mud. When organic bentonite is used in mud, especially in some horizontally oriented drilling fluids, it can provide good viscosity and filtration control to reduce fluid loss and improve drilling stability. The thermal stability of organic bentonite is also a topic of great concern for everyone, So currently, organoclay supplier Camp Shinning’s CP series organoclay bentonite has good thermal stability. It has been recognized by many users and can make its performance indicators exceed traditional organoclays, especially showing extremely stable performance in high-temperature and high-pressure drilling applications.

Organic bentonite can be divided into two types: dispersed type and pre gel type.  

From the perspective of dispersion, the main purpose is to increase hydrophobicity, and the synthesis spacing allows organic bentonite to fully utilize its comprehensiveness in terms of performance.For example, in polymer dyes and pigments, organic bentonite can achieve the ability of variable control.

Currently, many people who choose organic bentonite will inquire about organoclay filter. We also have some corresponding models that can help you achieve the goal of filtering your product.

We hope that the above information will be helpful for you when asking what is organoclay.
