# CP-98 Organoclay Additive for Anti-Yellowing Transparent Coating Formulations | Camp-Shinning

Transparent coatings must maintain clarity and appearance over time, especially in light-colored or clear systems where yellowing is highly visible. Camp-Shinning supplies **CP-98 organoclay additive** designed to support **light color gel formation**, stable rheology, and improved appearance retention in solvent-based transparent coating formulations.

## Why Transparent Coatings Yellow or Change Appearance
– Resin oxidation or impurities can shift color
– Uneven film thickness can create optical color differences
– Poor stability may cause streaks or haze development
– Storage instability can change clarity and gloss

## How CP-98 Supports Anti-Yellowing Goals
CP-98 can help by:
– Supporting light color gel structure for clearer appearance
– Improving sag resistance to maintain uniform film thickness
– Enhancing flow and leveling for smoother surfaces
– Stabilizing formulations to reduce separation and streaking risks

## Best-Fit Transparent Applications
– Clear architectural coatings
– Transparent wood finishes and sealers
– Clear protective coatings
– Light-colored solvent-based topcoats requiring appearance stability

## Practical Formulation Tips
– Select compatible solvent blend to maintain clarity
– Use clean dispersion process to minimize haze risk
– Optimize dosage for structure without over-thickening
– Validate yellowing and clarity retention in accelerated aging

## FAQ

### Can CP-98 prevent yellowing by itself?
Yellowing is influenced by resins, solvents, and additives; CP-98 supports light color gels and stable appearance, helping reduce visible changes in transparent systems.

### Does CP-98 improve clarity retention?
It is designed to support transparency and stable rheology, which can help maintain clarity when properly formulated.

### Is it suitable for clear wood coatings?
Yes. It supports leveling, sag control, and appearance stability in solvent-based wood finishes.

### What tests should be used to evaluate anti-yellowing performance?
Accelerated aging, color measurements, gloss retention, and haze evaluation are commonly used.
