OPTIBENT® products – rheological additives based on laminar silicates – have been specially developed to meet the requirements of dry-mix mortars and paste systems. These products make it possible to influence and control such specific properties as viscosity, yield value (stability) and workability. OPTIBENT® products are suitable for use in all mineral-based systems such as adhesives, EIFS, stuccos, plasters, levellings and screeds. For latex based systems, we also recommend Optigel® W products in addition to OPTIBENT®.
