Dapro FX 2060 Polyamide Elementis Rheology Modifier/ Thickener >> Organoclay >> Bentonite Rheology Modifier/ Thickener >> Organoclay >> Hectorite Acrylic/Acrylate Resins Alkyd Resins Cellulosic Resins Chlorinated Rubber Epoxy Resins Organic solvents Soluble in organic solvent DAPRO® FX 2060 is an effective polyamide activator for bentonite and hectorite based organoclay pregels which, increases the sag resistance and reduces pigment settling of non-aqueous coatings. Organoclay pregels are frequently used for poor-wetting resin systems,High solids, low VOC systems,non-thixotropic millbases and clear coating systems. APPLICATION AND PROPERTIES DAPRO® FX 2060 activated bentonite and hectorite pregels are used with most non-aqueous coatings including; alkyds, alkyd-melamine, acrylic, nitrocellulose,chlorinated rubber and epoxy coatings as well as systems containing zinc or aluminum. By using DAPRO® FX 2060 instead of polar solvents,a soft and paste-like, yet optimally activated pregel is obtained. Typical advantages include improved activation, reduced drying of the pregel,excellent sag resistance,excellent anti-settling properties.
