Riobent IC – Quick Disperse Rheology Additive: One Solution For Multiple Applications

About Riobent IC

Riobent IC is a quick-disperse organoclay additive, synthesized from high-purity montmorillonite to deliver superior rheological control across diverse coating systems.

Specially developed by 20 Microns, this additive ensures fast dispersion, excellent anti-sagging, and long-term hot-storage stability in organic paints and coating formulations.

Riobent IC is a versatile rheology modifier engineered to meet the complex demands of modern coating industries — offering consistent performance, smoother flow, and optimal film uniformity in both solvent-borne and high-solid systems.

Why Choose Riobent IC by 20 Microns?

The unique chemistry of Riobent IC ensures excellent compatibility with various resins and solvents, making it the go-to additive for industrial, marine, epoxy, and anti-corrosive coatings.

It not only simplifies formulation but also enhances the coating’s visual and mechanical integrity by preventing sagging, settling, and viscosity drift.
