Megatone
Megatone is a readily dispersible organoclay for non-polar to medium-polarity organic applications.
It provides viscosity increase, reduces sagging of coatings on vertical surfaces and prevents settling of pigments and fillers.
Why use Megatone:
- Cost-effective replacement for conventional organoclay additives
- Easy dispersion, even under low shear conditions
- Stable viscosity build, controls sag and pigment settling
- Requires no chemical activator
- Eliminates the need for pregels
- Can be added as a powder to the millbase
Megatone can be incorporated in the pigment grind under high shear without sensitivity to
overshear.
