Product Description
Enhancing the viscosity and flow characteristics of solvent-based paints requires the use of thickening and rheological additives, which are usually in powder form. These substances, which include polyurethanes and cellulose derivatives, enhance paint consistency, enabling better application and avoiding sagging. They ensure uniform distribution by altering the flow behaviour. When kept at room temperature, the agents have a one-year shelf life and an odourless texture. High-shear mixers and other mixing technologies are necessary for formulation. These agents are used by industries such as coatings, adhesives, and inks to increase the stability, smoothness, and performance of their products, which improves user experience and application efficiency.
Thickening & Rheological Agents
- These Additives are used to control the rheological properties of coating material to prevent sagging during paint application, adjust application thickness, facilitate painting, improve levelling, and prevent sedimentation of the filler, among other functions.
- These additives are the key ingredients in paints, coatings & inks as the precise properties and characteristics of fluid products. Without these special additives, such media would be as runny as water.
Advantages:
- Reduces dripping and spattering of paint during roller or brush application.
- Sag resistance of paint is improved by controlled viscosity increase.
- During transport and storage of the paint, the rheology agents prevent sedimentation of the pigments within a formulation.
- It achieves the desired balance between consistency, durability & good application properties.
