31.05.2025 Unlocking the full potential: enhancing activation mechanisms of rheological modifiers in Paint Back Tools Bookmark Share Rheology modifiers play a crucial role in regulating flow behavior, impacting various properties such as leveling, sagging, settling, and thixotropy. This study aims to optimize activation mechanisms to minimize energy consumption and reduce the quantity of modifiers required. An in-depth study on bentonites and polyamide waxes will be presented. By analyzing the effects of temperature, shear forces, and specific chemicals on bentonites and polyamide waxes, optimal activation processes will be identified.
