OPTIGEL-CK XR

OPTIGEL CK XR is a specially selected and activated bentonite product that shows a marked thixotropic thickening effect. As a gellant, OPTIGEL CK XR prevents settling of heavy pigments and incorporates a yield value into coating and building material systems. It is purely inorganic and stable against diluted acids and bases. Gels produced with OPTIGEL CK XR also withstand oxidation or microbial degradation, ensuring long term stability of coatings and construction products. OPTIGEL CK XR allows for the application of thick, sag-resistant coatings and improves workability of construction mixtures. It is compatible with most emulsions, pigments or extenders used in the industry.
