ACRYSOL™ ASE and HASE rheology modifiers are associative thickeners offering a range of performance attributes including leveling, sag resistance and film build.
ACRYSOL™ HEUR rheology modifiers are non-ionic associative thickeners that offer excellent flow and leveling.
The combination of ACRYSOL™ HASE and HEUR products provide the formulator the opportunity to develop optimized performance properties.
Product Highlight: ACRYSOL™ RM-995 Rheology Modifier
An APEO-free*, solvent-free*, hydrophobically modified ethylene oxide urethane (HEUR) rheology modifier that utilizes ACID SUPPRESSION™ technology. This mid-shear (KU) viscosity rheology modifier offers improved performance in viscosity stability upon tinting and excellent sag resistance while maintaining the key properties of HEUR technology. ACRYSOL™ RM-995 has applicability in both interior and exterior latex coatings. It is provided as a low-viscosity material for ease of use in the manufacturing process.
Uses
- Premium and standard interior and exterior paints
- Flat to gloss formulations
- Water-based architectural and industrial coatings
- White base to neutral base paints
Benefits
- Efficient KU and Brookfield viscosity build
- Unique rheology profile allows for excellent flow and leveling and also very good sag resistance
- Helps improve viscosity stability of paints tinted with high levels of colorant
- Rapid viscosity equilibration
- Delivered as a low-viscosity, high-solids, solvent-free* liquid for easy handling in manufacturing facilities
- APEO Free*
*made without APEO-containing surfactant
TAMOL™ dispersants enable the formulator to optimize wet paint stability by preventing flocculation and pigment settling. The proper dispersant choice can improve the gloss, hiding and color development of the dry film. TAMOL™ dispersant technologies include polyacid, hydrophilic copolymer, and hydrophobic copolymer options providing formulators the flexibility to meet key performance properties.
Product Highlight: TAMOL™ 2028
TAMOL™ 2028 is a high performance universal dispersant suitable for all pigment types.
Features and Benefits:
- Suitable for all varieties of pigments
- Excellent pigment dispersion and stabilization
- Facilitates the formulation of low / ultra-low VOC products
- Maximizes gloss potential and color strength
- Enhances water resistance and corrosion resistance
- APEO-free1 and Ammonia-free2
