BYK Claytone® 40 Rheological Additive
Categories:	Ceramic; Clay; Other Engineering Material; Additive/Filler for Polymer
Material Notes:	Claytone 40 is a modified montmorillonite designed to be used in aliphatic and aliphatic/aromatic systems that exhibit low to medium polarity. Claytone 40 functions as a thixotropic rheology modifier generating properties such as flow control and anti-setting. Claytone 40 provides reliable and reproducible rheological properties in solvent based paints, stains, enamels, primers, and inks as well as other applications. Claytone 40 requires the use of a polar activator to achieve full efficiency. Applications: Oil based paints and stains Lubricating greases Adhesives Caulks and sealants Cosmetics and personal care Inks Information provided by Southern Clay Products
