THIXATROL ST rheological additive is a modified derivative of castor oil for use in aliphatic and aromatic solvent-borne coatings. It also imparts flow and levelling control to powder coatings.

THIXCIN® R  is a rheological Additive for Organic Systems Based on Non-Polar Solvents and for Powder Coating.

CRAYVALLAC® SUPER is a high performance, micronised amide wax rheology modifier suitable for a wide range of solvent-based, high-solids and solvent-free applications. CRAYVALLAC® SUPER overcomes those difficulties which exist with hydrogenated castor oil based rheology modifiers e.g. seeding and false-body. Consequently, coatings formulated using CRAYVALLAC® SUPER exhibit an enhanced performance such as controlled flow behavior, ease of application and excellent sag resistanceIts smooth viscosity recovery will help to achieve high film thickness without compromising a good levelling.

CRAYVALLAC® MT is a micronised amide modified hydrogenated castor oil rheology modifier for solvent-based and solvent-free systems. CRAYVALLAC® MT is suited to systems based on aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbon/alcohol blends. Compared to the most basic hydrogenated castor oil based rheology modifiers, CRAYVALLAC® MT is more tolerant to stronger solvents. CRAYVALLAC® MT particles are converted upon activation into an interacting network of fibre like particles. This network gives rise to the final coating’s shear thinning rheology. 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.
