Powder additives that provide rheology control and special functions! Available for water-based and solvent-based applications.
We would like to introduce the "layered inorganic additives" that we handle. These are powder additives that provide rheology control (preventing sedimentation, preventing dripping, improving workability, etc.) and special functions. For water-based applications, we offer "LAPONITE," "OPTIGEL," and "OPTIBENT." For solvent-based applications, we have "GARAMITE" and "CLAYTONE" as organic modified layered inorganic additives in our lineup. 【Features】 ■LAPONITE: Nano-sized, minimal impact on haze, high effectiveness in exhibiting viscosity in water-based systems. ■OPTIGEL: Imparts thixotropic properties, resistant to pH fluctuations. ■OPTIBENT: Prevents separation of aggregates and cement, suitable for self-leveling materials as well. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
