Min-U-Gel® thixotropic thickeners and suspension agents have been a staple in coatings, sealants and many other liquid composites for decades. They provide excellent flow and leveling, syneresis control, sag resistance, in-can stability, and improve freeze-thaw and much more. Unlike other rheology modifiers, Min-U-Gel 400 attapulgite product’s viscosity does not fade from prolonged shear and it is impervious to ionic and bacterial conditions. Min-U-Gel 400 can easily replace other mineral thickeners or partially replace and enhance cellulosic fibers and associative thickeners to lower cost and improve overall coating properties.
