Product Description:

Luvotix R is a rheological additive, specifically a modified castor oil derivative, used as a thickener and thixotropic agent in various applications like paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and putties. It controls the rheological properties of liquid organic systems, particularly those with low to medium polarity. Luvotix R also functions as an anti-settling agent and improves leveling and application properties.

Benifits:

  • Rheological Modifier: Luvotix R alters the flow and viscosity of liquid systems, providing thickening and thixotropic properties.
  • Thixotropy: It creates a non-Newtonian flow behavior, meaning the viscosity changes with shear rate, which can be useful for preventing sagging and improving leveling.
  • Anti-Settling Agent:
    It helps prevent pigments and fillers from settling out of the formulation during storage.
  • Suitable for: Low to medium polar liquid organic systems, and some powder coating applications.

Properties:

  • Paints and Coatings: Used in solvent-borne and powder coating formulations.
  • Adhesives and Sealants: Enhances application properties and prevents sagging.
  • Putties: Helps control rheology and improve application.
