Plant-Based Thickening Agent - Hatorite RD for Coatings

Short Description:

Hatorite RD is a synthetic layered silicate. It is insoluble in water but hydrates and swells to give clear and colorless colloidal dispersions. At concentrations of 2% or greater in water, highly thixotropic gels can be produced.

General Specifications

Appearance: free flowing white powder

Bulk Density: 1000 kg/m3

Surface Area (BET): 370 m2/g

pH (2% suspension): 9.8

Hatorite RD stands out for its unparalleled gel strength, boasting a minimum of 22g, which ensures optimal thickness and consistency in your products. This characteristic is crucial for achieving the desired application properties and finish in paints and coatings. Additionally, its meticulous sieve analysis reveals that 2% max of the particles are greater than 250 microns, indicating a high level of fineness and uniformity. Such uniformity is pivotal for smooth application and flawless coverage, preventing issues like clumping or uneven texture that can detract from the aesthetic and protective qualities of paints and coatings. Moreover, Hatorite RD maintains a low free moisture content of 10% max, an essential factor in prolonging the shelf life and stability of water-based formulations. The chemical composition, with a significant SiO2 content of 59 on a dry basis, underscores its effectiveness as a plant-based thickening agent. This not only ensures the product's efficiency but also highlights its eco-friendly attributes, making it an ideal choice for environmentally conscious manufacturers looking to reduce their carbon footprint without compromising on quality or performance. As the industry continues to shift towards more sustainable practices, Hemings' Hatorite RD offers a forward-thinking solution that meets the rigorous demands of today's market, setting a new standard for excellence in water-based paints and coatings.
