HIGHLIGHTS

Pangel OMD1 does not require neither strong mechanical energy to disperse nor a polar activator to achieve a suitable dispersion. It is recommended to disperse Pangel OMD1 before surfactants and wetting agents.; Pangel OMD1 can be added at any point in the paint manufacturing process. Post addition is also valid to correct the final viscosity of a given formulatioon.; Pre-gelling is not necessary to develop full rheological properties of Pangel OMD1. Pre-gels of Pangel OMD1 do not show the same viscosity organobentonites, but they confer the same rheological properties to the final than conventional systems.
