Rheology, settling and applicability Imerys Minerals for Improved inorganic/organic pigment suspension, improve settling in deep base paint lines
Imerys hydrous kaolin and muscovite mica with their lameller morphologies are an excellent choice to improve pigment dispersion and in-can settling problem in paints and coatings.
Viscosity
Our Mineral additives adjust the viscosity and improve wetting of pigments to minimize foaming, helping to protect the paint from biocidal attack.
Pigment suspension
Imerys lamellar paint and coatings products improve the pigment suspension, reduce the pigment flocculation during storage and improve spatter resistance performance.
