CRAYVALLAC® SLT is a high performance micronised amide wax rheology modifier designed for activation-free manufacture of moisture curing methoxysilane based systems. Simple stirring is only necessary to get full efficiency. CRAYVALLAC® SLT is also suitable for the activation-free manufacture of moisture curing methoxysilane based adhesives. CRAYVALLAC® SLT is specially designed for the low temperature manufacture of one-component methoxysilane sealants where processing temperatures typically lie within the range 30 – 80°C. CRAYVALLAC® SLT particles are converted to an interacting network of crystalline fibres. It is this network that gives rise to the shear thinning rheology. This shear thinning characteristic provides for a low viscosity at the shear rates associated with application by extrusion, and a veryhigh viscosity under the low shear rates experienced after application. The net result is ease of application followed by excellent sag and slump resistance.

CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 is a pre-activated amide wax supplied in a mixture of xylene and alcohols. It is a rheology modifier in paste form for post-addition to solvent-based industrial systems. The use of CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 provides a very simple and direct mean of introducing shear-thinning rheology with thixotropic viscosity recovery to formulations.

CRAYVALLAC® PA4 BA 20 is a HAPs-free rheology modifier pre-activated amide wax supplied in a mixture of butyl acetate and alcohol. It is a rheology modifier in paste form with enhanced transparency, excellent anti-sagging and anti-settling properties. CRAYVALLAC® PA4 BA 20 is supplied in the form of crystalline fibres. In a coating system, these fibres form an interacting network. This network gives rise to the shear thinning rheology of the final coating. This shear thinning characteristic provides a very high viscosity under the low shear rates associated with sedimentation, and a low viscosity at the much higher application shear rates. The net result is excellent control of sedimentation combined with ease of application.
