Rheology modifiers are added during the production process mostly before the dispersing stage - type and amount adjusted to the dispersing equipment - to obtain optimal flow behaviour to the mill base. Rheology modifiers include two natures of products which are organic rheology modifiers and the other one is inorganic nature rheology modifiers. Organic rheology modifiers are used for the surface active, polymeric film matrix during film-formation which improves the appearance, gloss and flow of the surface.
