Research Summary
Rheological additives are substances added to materials, such as polymers, paints, inks, or drilling fluids, to modify their flow and deformation characteristics, thereby influencing their rheological properties. These additives play a crucial role in controlling viscosity, flow behavior, and other rheological parameters of the material. Common rheological additives include thickeners, dispersants, and gelling agents. Thickeners increase viscosity, providing better suspension of solid particles in liquids, while dispersants enhance the uniform distribution of particles. Gelling agents, on the other hand, can transform a liquid into a gel, affecting the material's structural integrity. Rheological additives find extensive use in industries like paints and coatings, food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, where controlling the flow and consistency of products is critical for their performance and application properties. The precise selection and incorporation of rheological additives allow manufacturers to tailor the characteristics of their products to meet specific requirements and improve overall product performance.
The major global manufacturers of Rheological Additives include DuPont, Akzo Nobel, Lhoist, Coatex, Zhejiang Fenghong New Material, BASF, Ashland, BYK (ALTANA), Lubrizol, CP Kelco, Tolsa, Elementis, Wanhua Chemcial, Zhejiang Qinghong New Material, Kusumoto, Croda, etc. The global players competition landscape in this report is divided into three tiers.
