Achieving excellent deflocculation and stabilization requires an additive with highly efficient pigment-affinic groups. In general, those pigment-affinic groups are aminic in nature and can react with the epoxy resins. Due to the special hyperbranched structure of DISPERBYK®-2152 the aminic pigment-affinic groups are encapsulated by polyester side chains; this prevents reaction with the epoxy resin, and, as a result, long-term storage stability is achieved. The additive contains no solvents or volatile components and fulfills the strict requirements of the German AgBB as well as French VOC standards view less

The MMT technology provides performance benefits which are not possible with traditional organoclay additives. Traditional organoclays are very hard to disperse, typically requiring both very high shear mixing and a polar activator to help delaminate the aggregates of clay platelets. Due to the multiple particle morphologies of this product, the powder disperses very easily into oils or solvents with only moderate shear. GARAMITE® 7303 exhibits a very unique rheology profile compared to other thickening additives. Very high low-shear viscosity can be achieved by incorporating this product into formulations which results in outstanding ant-settling and anti-syneresis properties. However, when a shear force is applied, the viscosity is quickly reduced which allows for excellent application properties. view less

It works together with the binder and builds a three-dimensional network via hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. In addition to the dosage level and the polarity of the system, the degree of disentanglement of the higher molecular weight additive is key to the effectiveness. The higher molecular weight and the more pronounced pseudoplastic flow behavior are the reasons for the more temperature-stable viscosity behavior of RHEOBYK-415, even at higher drying temperatures. view less

With the aid of the pigments and fillers, the additive generates a three-dimensional network structure. The entanglement of the high molecular weight polymers is responsible for the development of the pseudoplastic flow behavior. The polarity of the system and the incorporation temperature influence the rheological effectiveness. The settling of the pigments and fillers is prevented and outstanding anti-sagging properties are produced due to the rapid rebound in viscosity after shearing. The additive has no "false body effect", no negative influence on the intercoat adhesion, and it is easy to process on account of its liquid form. view less
