YH-908A TDS1 Organophilic Clay

YH-908A is an organoclay (tetraallkyl ammonium bentonite) for solvent-based systems of low to medium polarity.

1.Advantages:

? High gelling efficiency over low to medium polarity organic liquids. 

? Ideal thixotropy ,anti-sagging,anti-sediment property.

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

? Exerts strong film reinforce action in organic binder systems.

? Good dispersion performance.

4.Incorportions:

YH-908A 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.

Polar Activator: Dosage of polar activator (such as 95%ethanol, 95%methanol, 95%acetone or propylene carbonate) is 30%-60% by weight of YH-908A

It is always recommended to determine the proper level of addition by experiment. Either defect or excess of chemical activator would result 

in poorer viscosity development.

5.Recommended Levels:

The amount of YH-908A rheological additive 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.

6.International Countertypes: Bentone®38, Claytone®40, Tixogel®VP-A
