Advantages of magnesium aluminium silicate over organic gums:
- water dispersions are not tacky or greasy
- enhances stablity, even when stored for prolonged periods in the original container. Unlike organic gums, it is not subject to bacterial decomposition
- readily dispered in water without soaking
- suspends powder and pigments more efficiently at lower viscosity than organic gums. In many cases it will give free flowing suspensions where organic gum form either irreversible gels or hard packed settling.�
