Coating & Paint Industry
Coatings & Paint
A small addition of BENTEC Organoclay can greatly enhance the rheological properties of the paint system. These properties prevent pigment settling and sagging on vertical surface to ensure the proper thickness of the coating is applied. They also ensure good leveling for the removal of brush marks.
Storage stability is ensured even with high temperatures. BENTEC Organoclays confer water resistance and structure reinforcement with no adverse effect on adhesion and also prevents water separation. Gloss is not affected due to the low levels of addition.

Oil Well Drilling
Oil Well Drilling
BENTEC Organoclays are used extensively in drilling fluids throughout the world. It is a rheological agent and thixotrope for oils and oil mud to inhibit settling and oil separation. It imparts emulsion stabilizing characteristics to the mud and decreases fluid loss. It also stabilizes mud at high temperatures.

Road Marking Paints
Road Marking Paints
Road marking (also called line marking or pavement marking) can be applied using various materials and paints dependent on the surface and mark being made. These materials each have different properties, such as anti-skid, reflectivity, longevity and performance.
The materials most frequently used in road and floor markings are:
-
Thermoplastic
-
Water-based paint
-
MMA
-
Epoxy resin
Thermoplastic road marking paint is the most favoured material for road marking due to it being hard-wearing and reflective, making it ideal for high-traffic roads and highways. It is applied to the road surface by spray after heating to 180 degrees Celsius, which is why it’s sometimes called hot melt marking paint or hot tape.
For extra surface friction and reflectivity, glass beads and fillers are often added to the paint to improve safety. Pre-formed thermoplastic tape can also be used for line marking.
