Description

Amines, Bis(Hydrogenated Tallow Alkyl)Methyl, Compds. With Bentonite is a specialized organoclay compound, where quaternary ammonium salts derived from hydrogenated tallow are ion-exchanged onto the surface of bentonite clay. This chemical modification is critical for creating rheological additives and gelling agents with enhanced performance in non-aqueous systems. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the coatings, greases, and polymer industries seeking to control viscosity, prevent sagging, and improve the suspension of pigments and fillers.

Application

• Rheology Modifier in Solvent-based Coatings & Paints: Imparts thixotropic properties to prevent sagging on vertical surfaces and control leveling.
• Gellant for Greases & Lubricants: Used to structure and thicken lubricating greases, providing mechanical stability and leak resistance.
• Viscosity Control Agent in Printing Inks: Enhances the rheological profile for improved transfer and sharp print definition.
• Suspension Aid in Polymer Composites: Helps suspend solid additives like pigments and fillers in polyester gel coats and other resin systems.
• Additive for Oil Drilling Muds: Acts as an organophilic clay to control fluid loss and rheology in oil-based drilling fluids.
• Stabilizer in Sealants & Adhesives: Prevents settling of components and maintains desired consistency during application and cure.

Quality Control

Our production of organoclay compounds adheres to stringent quality protocols to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance reliability. Key parameters such as gel formation, moisture content, and particle size distribution are rigorously tested. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific test results is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are kept sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect performance.
