BK-883 is an organoclay for solvent-based systems of low to medium polarity.

ADVANTAGES

☆ High gelling efficiency over low to medium polarity organic liquids,

especially in aromatic compounds.

☆ Ideal thixotropy property and anti-sediment property.

☆ High viscosity and excellent thickening property over a wide temperature range.

☆ Imparts particle suspension, preventing hard settling of pigment and fillers.

☆ Exerts strong film reinforce action in organic binder systems.     

BK-883 belongs to the conventional type of organoclay group, which requires mechanical energy, shear forces applied with a goods dispersion equipment, and a chemical (polar) activator to reach the proper level of delamination of the organoclay platelet stacks.

The amount of BK-883 rheology modifier required depends upon the type

of organic system and the degree of thickening or other properties desired. Addition levels are typically between 0.2%-2.0% based on the total formulation weight...
