A thixotropic agent is a substance added to a liquid to increase its viscosity at rest while causing it to become more fluid when agitated, stirred, or otherwise sheared. This reversible, time-dependent change in viscosity is called thixotropy.

Features：

Preventing liquid silicone from running

Helping to build silicone up to desired thickness in order to holdlarger grade aggregate surfaces

Reducing a risk of aggregate migration on the sloped surfaceSimple, easy to use

Non Toxic & Environment friendly

Appearance

An odourless of transparent liquid.

Mixing ratio: Normally, the mixing ratio is within 1%.However, it depends on your requirements for pot life and curing time

How it works

When agitated: 

The agent‘s internal structure is broken down, allowing the liquid to flow more easily, which is ideal for mixing and application. 

When at rest: 

The structure reforms, causing the material to become a gel-like or paste-like substance that holds its shape and does not run or drip. 

Common applications

Paints and coatings: 

Prevents dripping and ensures smooth, even application on walls and ceilings. 

Construction: 

Improves the workability of mortars, adhesives, and self-leveling compounds. 

Silicone and latex: 

Used to thicken silicone or latex for applications like mold making, where it allows for build-up on vertical surfaces without running off. 

Sealants: 

Enables gap filling and ensures airtightness. 

Automotive, appliances, and packaging: 

Used in various plastic compounds and other materials to control flow and stability.
