RHEOBYK-410 has proven itself efficient for universal application in solvent-borne and high solids systems. As a result of varying regional labeling obligations for NMP (N-Methylpyrrolidone), the products are available alternatively as solutions in NEP (N-Ethylpyrroldione) and DMSO (Dimethylsulfoxide). A 1:1 exchange is possible for most applications. Appropriate preliminary testing is recommended view less

It is suitable for all kinds of aqueous coatings, printing inks, and adhesives in order to improve the anti-sagging properties and set the required in-can viscosity of the formulation. The resulting increase in viscosity simultaneously improves the storage stability with reduced settling. When grinding pigment pastes, the additive can also increase the millbase viscosity and therefore improve the dispersion conditions. 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
RHEOBYK-440 BYK RHEOBYK-440 is a liquid rheology additive based on a polyamide to improve the anti-sagging and anti-settling properties as well as the effect pigment orientation in aqueous coating systems. Extremely shear-thinning.
