Rheology Control For Coating, Adhesive And Other Liquid Systems:
Andifil AS 200 is widely used to provide thickening, thixotrophic (shear-thinning), and anti-settling behavior in liquid systems. Andifil AS 200 is most efficient in non-polar to medium polarity systems. For more polar systems, treated fumed silicas are more effective. Andifil AS 200 offers the best balance of thickening efficiency and dispersibility.
Free Flow of Powder Systems:
When blended into sticky and poorly flowing powder systems, Andifil AS 200 reduces angle of repose and improves powder flow. During storage of powder systems, Andifil AS 200 reduces caking and blocking.
Reinforcement of Silicone and Organic Powder Systems:
Andifil AS 200 can be used for reinforcement of silicone rubber and reinforce organic rubbers. It imparts an increase in hardness, tensile strength and elongation.
