Crayvallac® Super
CRAYVALLAC SUPER is a high performance, micronisedamide wax rheology modifier suitable for a wide range of solvent-based, high-solids and solvent-free applications. CRAYVALLAC SUPER overcomes those difficulties which exist with hydrogenated castor oil based rheology modifiers e.g. seeding and false-body. Consequently, coatings formulated using CRAYVALLAC SUPER exhibit an enhanced performance. CRAYVALLAC SUPER is best incorporated and activated using a high-speed disperser. It is usually best added along with the initial charge of resin during the pigment dispersion and grind stage. Efficient activation will be achieved by allowing the temperature during this dispersion process to rise to 50 – 60°C (122 - 140°F) depending on the coating system characteristics. For the best results this condition of dispersion and temperature should be maintained for 15 – 30 minutes.
