# CP-98 Organoclay Rheological Additive for Low to Medium Polarity Solvent Systems | Camp-Shinning
Low to medium polarity solvent systems are widely used in solvent-based paints, industrial coatings, inks, and sealants. Camp-Shinning supplies **CP-98 organoclay rheological additive** designed to build controlled structure in these systems, improving viscosity control, anti-sag performance, flow and leveling, and storage stability.
## Why Solvent Polarity Matters for Rheology
– Polarity influences organoclay dispersion and gel development
– Resin-solvent interactions determine viscosity response
– Pigment wetting and stability depend on solvent characteristics
– Proper polarity matching improves efficiency and consistency
## Performance Benefits in Low/Medium Polarity Systems
CP-98 can:
– Increase low-shear and mid-shear viscosity for better structure
– Improve sag resistance while maintaining smooth leveling
– Prevent pigment settling and improve shelf stability
– Control flooding and floating in colored coatings
– Stabilize coatings and reduce excessive penetration into porous substrates
## Typical Applications
– Aliphatic and aromatic solvent-based coatings
– Interior and exterior architectural coatings
– Industrial coatings and primers
– Protective and anticorrosive paints
– Wood primer formulations and transparent finishes
– Printing inks, sealant putty, and polyester systems
## Formulation Notes for Best Results
– Confirm solvent polarity range and resin compatibility
– Use appropriate dispersion energy to activate organoclay structure
– Optimize dosage to achieve target viscosity profile
– Validate performance across storage and application conditions
## FAQ
### What solvents are considered low to medium polarity?
Many aliphatic and aromatic solvent blends fall into this range; selecting CP-98 is based on the overall solvent-resin system.
### Can CP-98 work in higher polarity systems?
It can perform in selected higher polarity formulations depending on compatibility and dispersion method.
### Does CP-98 improve both sag resistance and leveling?
Yes. It is designed to balance structure with flow, improving sag resistance while supporting leveling.
### Is CP-98 suitable for inks and sealants?
Yes. It is used in solvent-based inks and sealant systems requiring viscosity control and stability.
