THIXATROL^® SR

THIXATROL SR additive is a non-seeding, highly efficient, 30 % active, liquid organic rheological additive for aromatic and some oxygenated solvent-based systems or blends of these solvents.

THIXATROL SR effectively eliminates seeding risks. THIXATROL SR thickened paints have no upper processing temperature limit. THIXATROL SR is a very efficient rheological additive and provides viscosity, thixotropy and excellent sag resistance. The combination of high efficiency and easy processing makes THIXATROL SR an attractive alternative to conventional rheological additives.

Key properties

• provides viscosity control, thixotropy and excellent sag resistance
• is non-seeding and allows:

1. high processing temperatures without seeding
2. long processing time without seeding
3. packaging a completed paint batch at high temperatures without seeding
4. storage of finished paint in hot warehouses without seeding

• is an easy-to-handle liquid
• reduces brush drag and produces excellent paint application properties 

Functions

• Rheological additives
• Thixotropic additive
