YH-980 TDS Organoclays

YH-980 is an organoclay (tetraallkyl ammonium bentonite) for solvent-based systems of low,medium and high polarity.

1.Advantages:

? High gelling efficiency over low to medium polarity organic liquids,especially in toluene, xylene, 200#solvent oil, naphtha and other aromatic and aliphatic compound.

? Consistent in rheology and thixotropy development.

? Good anti-sagging property and anti-sediment property.

? Easy of dispersion

2.Typical Properties:

3.Typical Applications:

4.Incorporations:

YH-980 belongs to the unconventional type of organoclays group, being an easy-to-disperse, self-activated organoclay,YH-980 does not require a chemical (polar) activator to reach the proper level of delamination of the organoclay platelet stacks.

It can also be added while grinding or after grinding without polar activator. If add it into low polar solvent systems first, better performance can be expected. Meanwhile, high speed shear can also imrove the dispersion greatly.

5.Recommended Levels:

The amount of YH-980 rheological additive required depends upon the type of organic system and the degree of thickening or other properties desired. Addition levels are typically between 0.3%-2.5% based on the total formulation weight.

6.International Countertypes:  Bentone®SD-1,Claytone®AF
