# CP-98 Solvent-Based Organoclay Rheological Additive: Applications, Benefits, and Supply | Camp-Shinning

CP-98 is a general-purpose **solvent-based organoclay rheological additive** designed for low to medium polarity aliphatic and aromatic coating systems. Camp-Shinning supplies CP-98 as a cost-effective rheology solution that builds controlled structure, improves application properties, and enhances storage stability across a wide range of solvent-based formulations.

## What CP-98 Is
CP-98 is an organic derivative of a montmorillonite clay supplied as a fine white powder. It is designed to develop rheological structure in solvent systems where stable viscosity control and appearance consistency are important.

## Key Benefits of CP-98 Rheology Control
CP-98 can help formulators achieve:
– Increased low-shear and mid-shear viscosity for better structure
– Excellent balance between sag resistance and flow & leveling
– Reduced pigment settling during storage and transport
– Improved control of flooding and floating for color uniformity
– Stabilized coating behavior and reduced excessive penetration into porous substrates
– Consistent batch-to-batch development of rheological properties
– Cost-effective performance for production-scale use

## Typical Applications
### Solvent-Based Coatings
– Interior and exterior architectural coatings
– Industrial coatings and primers
– Protective and anticorrosive coatings
– Wood coatings primer and clear finishes

### Printing Inks
– Solvent-based printing inks and concentrates
– Pigment dispersions requiring stable viscosity and suspension

### Sealant Putty and Caulking Compounds
– Solvent-based sealants requiring slump control and workability
– Putty systems needing stable structure during storage

### Unsaturated Polyester Systems
– Filled resin systems requiring suspension stability
– Polyester-based coatings needing controlled processing viscosity

## Why CP-98 Is Used in Transparent Paint
CP-98 can form a light color gel and supports high transparency, making it suitable for clear or transparent coatings. It is also recommended for formulations where appearance stability and anti-yellowing performance are important.

## Supply, Packaging, and Procurement Support
Camp-Shinning supplies CP-98 in industrial packaging designed for coating plants, formulators, and distributors. Standard supply is commonly provided in 25 kg bags, with optional inner liners and export-ready palletization. Bulk ordering and staged shipping can be arranged for continuous production programs.

## Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

### What solvent systems does CP-98 work best in?
CP-98 is designed for low to medium polarity aliphatic and aromatic solvent-based systems and can be evaluated in selected higher polarity blends depending on compatibility.

### What coating problems can CP-98 help solve?
It improves sag resistance, leveling, pigment suspension, storage stability, and helps control flooding and floating in colored coatings.

### Is CP-98 suitable for transparent coatings?
Yes. It supports high transparency and light color gels when properly dispersed, helping maintain appearance in clear finishes.

### How do I evaluate CP-98 in my formulation?
Assess viscosity across shear rates, run sag and leveling panels, check storage stability, and evaluate color uniformity and clarity in the final film.

### Can Camp-Shinning support bulk supply programs?
Yes. Camp-Shinning supports bulk supply, export packing, and technical assistance for dispersion methods and dosage optimization.
