Features & Benefits

CASE Ingredients Features
Product Advantages
  • Easy to incorporate – no need for a chemical activator
  • Higher bulk density vs. pyrogenic silica requiring less storage space and fewer bags to handle
  • Easy, dust free dispersion, especially in styrene and high polarity solvent systems
  • Superior shear-thinning vs. traditional rheology modifiers

Applications & Uses

Physical Form
Incorporations

BS-1C-A13 does not require heat or a chemical activator to reach the proper activation. BS-1C-A13 can be incorporated directly into the resin. However, in unsaturated and
vinyl esters systems, preparation of an 8-12% pregel in styrene is recommended to achieve optimal efficiency. For post-adding BS-1C-A13 high shear is required.
