Procedure | |
Add Syntran PC 5620 to batch tank. With constant agitation, slowly add 28% ammonium hydroxide. In a separate vessel, premix phase B with appropriate agitation. Slowly add phase B to phase A with constant agitation. Stir for 30 minutes and avoid aeration. Separately prepare a 12.5% wt/wt aqueous solution of Laponite XLS. Stir until clear and fully hydrated. Add phase C to batch and stir for 15 minutes. Add phase D to batch and stir with appropriate agitation to disperse pigment. | |
