DEURHEO WT-100

Waterborne Rheological Additive Polyurethane-based waterborne thickener.

DeuRheo WT-100 is a polyurethane-based waterborne thickener. It is a liquid product which gives outstanding performance. DeuRheo WT-100 is superior to conventional cellulose or acrylate thickeners in leveling and film gloss. 

Key properties


DeuRheo WT-100 can increase viscosity in a high shear rate and control viscosity at a low shear rate, therefore, flow and leveling can be highly improved. With the use of DeuRheo WT-100, waterborne paints can have the same flow property as alkyd resins. DeuRheo WT-100 is superior to conventional thickeners in film thickness, brushability and appearance.

Compared to cellulosic or acrylate thickeners, DeuRheo WT-100 has the following advantages:

  • Easy to use
  • Better leveling
  • Higher gloss
  • Better brushability
  • Does not cause pigment flocculation 
  • Eliminates roller spatter
  • Better colourant acceptance
  • Resistant to bacterial and enzyme degradation to keep viscosity stable
