RHEOLATE® 2001
Organic compound rheological additives for waterborne systems
RHEOLATE 2001 is a highly efficient, pourable liquid, antisettling additive for use in water-reducible coatings and inks.
RHEOLATE 2001 provides superior suspension of pigments and at relatively low addition levels, with minimal mid-shear-range viscosity increase.
RHEOLATE 2001 may be used in industrial and consumer paints, and in inks, based on water-reducible resins, such as alkyd, acrylic, epoxy and urethane. RHEOLATE 2001 requires neither minimum nor maximum activation temperatures and can be post-added, if necessary. RHEOLATE 2001 should be used in systems with a pH >6.0.
Because RHEOLATE 2001 does not build viscosity in the mid-to upper-shear-rate range, it is ideal for spray-applied systems.
