The core of Hatorite RD lies in its exceptional gel strength, starting at a minimum of 22g, ensuring that the viscosity of your inks and coatings is maintained at an ideal level for both application and performance. Its meticulous sieve analysis guarantees a maximum of 2% of particles are over 250 microns, ensuring a smooth, consistent product with no undesirable texture or grit. Furthermore, a controlled free moisture content of no more than 10% ensures that Hatorite RD integrates seamlessly into water-based systems without altering their delicate moisture balance. On a chemical level, Hatorite RD boasts a composition with 59% SiO2 (Silicon Dioxide), tailored to provide the perfect balance between thickening efficiency and transparency in the final product. This composition not only contributes to the product's thickening capabilities but also enhances its stability and compatibility within a wide range of water-based inks and coatings. As the demand for eco-friendly and water-based solutions grows, the importance of innovative additives like Magnesium Lithium Silicate Hatorite RD cannot be overstated. Its role as a thickening agent in water-borne inks is crucial in achieving desired performance characteristics while adhering to stringent environmental standards.
