Hatorite TE: Premier Thickening Agent for Diverse Industries

Hemings is proud to introduce Hatorite TE, our flagship organically modified powdered clay additive, meticulously designed to cater to the versatile needs of water-borne systems like latex paints and beyond. As the most common thickening agent, Hatorite TE stands at the forefront of innovation, offering unparalleled rheological properties that significantly improve product consistency and application. In the realm of industrial applications, the requirement for a reliable, high-quality thickening agent cannot be overstated. Hatorite TE meets this demand head-on, proving its efficacy across a broad spectrum of uses such as in agrochemicals, where it aids in the precise dispersion of active ingredients, to latex and foundry paints, ensuring smooth, even coatings. Its versatility extends further into adhesives, where it provides the essential viscosity needed for optimal bonding strength, and in ceramics, it contributes to a flawless, robust finish. The compound's remarkable adaptability also shines in the production of plaster-type compounds, cementitious systems, polishes, cleaners, cosmetics, textile finishes, crop protection agents, and waxes, each benefiting from Hatorite TE's superior thickening and stabilizing abilities.
