Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Organoclay in paints & coatings applications

RIOBENT organoclays build a 3D thixotropic gel network that prevents pigment settling, controls sag on vertical surfaces, and ensures stable paint body during storage and application.

RIOBENT delivers significant rheology improvement at dosages of 0.2–2%, making it highly cost-efficient for formulation optimization in industrial and decorative paint systems.

RIOBENT is effective in solvent-based alkyd, epoxy, polyurethane, polyester, and acrylic paint systems where controlled rheology and anti-settling performance are required.

Most RIOBENT grades require polar activators for optimal gelling, but self-dispersing grades like RIOBENT SD eliminate this requirement for simplified processing.

Its exfoliated quaternary ammonium-modified silicate layers provide superior interlayer expansion, delivering reproducible thixotropy over a wide temperature range and in challenging paint environments.
