Attagel 36 Specialty attapulgite Engelhard-BASF Rheology Modifier/ Thickener >> Organoclay >> Attapulgite Inks Coatings >> Solventborne Coatings >> Waterborne Architectural / Decorative Transportation >> Road marking Attagel® specialty attapulgite products Engelhard-BASF Attagel specialty attapulgite products are excellent thixotropic thickening agents for water-borne and solvent systems in paint and foundry coatings. Thixotropy allows materials such as paint and ink to spread easily when rolled, sprayed or brushed, and then stiffen at a controlled rate. And Attagel thickeners are perfect for these types of applications. For example, Attagel thickeners offer rapid dispersion and effective thixotropic thickening in paints and coatings. Thixotropic viscosity build Syneresis (liquid separation) control Pigment suspension Sag resistance Good film build Reduced water sensitivity Improved tint strength/hiding in paints Bacteria and chemical resistance Spatter resistance Cost-effective rheology profile Excellent binding and tabletting features Improved extrusion properties Attagel 36: offers easy application properties and excellent storage stability; recommended for asphalt coating applications, including roof and driveway coatings.
