Studies on Organoclay-Based Additive for Paintwork Materials

Abstract

The technology of an organo-mineral additive based on clay with a high proportion of montmorillonite is described. Given the limited reserves bentonit clay, used of organic- additives on based multimineral clays with a high content of montmorillonite. The concentration of plasticizer is determined by the variation in surface tension of the plasticizer solution. The usage of organoclay in polystyrene paint composition is demonstrated. Comparative properties of polystyrene paints modified with organoclay and coatings based on them are presented.
