 Rheology Modifier

The rheological properties of coating systems primarily are designed to improve paint handling, application and How to select rheology modifiers
leveling properties. Rheology modifiers are compounds which interact with formulation components, building up Rheology profile of a water-based acrylic clear coat
a three dimensional network or modifying the fluid phase only. These additives optimize the viscosity profile of
coating systems.

However viscosity control is also very important to shelf storage stability, to reduce the tendency of pigment and
extender sedimentation in the container. During storage, pigments and extenders may show a tendency to settle
into a soft or hard layer in the container. This is caused by the higher density of these components in relation
to the liquid phase. Sedimentation can be overcome by using additives which form three dimensional networks.
Anti-settling agents modify the viscosity at extremely low shear rates which governs sedimentation.

 Driers & Catalysts

Driers and Catalyst selection are very important elements to ensure the desired performance in reactive and Catalysts are used to speed up cross linking reactions of two-component polyurethane systems or improve
crosslinked coatings. curing conditions in stoving enamels. The reaction of melamine resins and polyols is complex and require
acidic catalysts. The relative effi ciency of catalysts correlates to the acidity and the overall reaction rate is
The cross linking reaction of air drying alkyd systems is based on a radical mechanism, starting with the direct proportional to the concentration of the catalyst. Frequently used catalysts are p-toluene sulfonic acid
incorporation of oxygen from air. The absorption step is accelerated by Driers, which are carboxylic salts of (PTSA), dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DDBSA), dinonyl naphthalene di sulfonic acid (DNNDSA), phosphoric acid
metals. Cobalt, manganese and iron are the most important active drying metals whereas barium, zirconium or derivatives or organic acids.
calcium belong to the group of secondary drying metals. Pre-emulsified combination driers allow efficient set and
through drying with easy incorporation in water-borne paint formulations. Ionic or covalently blocked sulfonic acid catalysts are used in amino resin based stoving systems. The heat
sensitive deactivation of the sulfonic acid is a very important tool to achieve the desired balance of storage
stability of a catalyzed system and then rapid cure when the coating reaches the desired cure temperature.
