HECTGEL RD is a synthetic layered silicate consisting of Li, Mg and Si. Its structure is constituted by two layers of Si-O tetrahedron with one layer of Mg-O octahedron. It can hydrate with water and swell to form clear and colorless colloidal dispersions. Highly thixotropic gels can be formed at concentrations of 2% or more and these gels demonstrate highly shear thinning behavior. HECTGEL RD is used where a shear sensitive waterborne gel structure is desired, having high viscosity under low shear and low viscosity when exposed to high shear. Upon removal of shear the gel viscosity is quickly recovered.
