Rheolate 1

RHEOLATE 1 rheological additive is an economical and versatile product in emulsion form for a variety of water-borne systems. RHEOLATE 1 rheological additive is an additive with a high thickening efficiency in the mediumshear-rate range and imparts excellent pigment suspension properties. Unlike other acrylic thickeners, RHEOLATE 1 does not impair gloss. KEY PROPERTIES - RHEOLATE 1 rheological additive features and benefits are: EXCELLENT RHEOLOGY: high mid-shear-rate viscosity; provides good anti-settling properties; reduced syneresis. EXCELLENT PAINT PERFORMANCE: reduces spattering during roller application; improves freeze/thaw stability. EXCELLENT FILM PROPERTIES: maintains gloss levels; improves corrosion resistance. ENZYME RESISTANCE: resists viscosity loss; re-thickens enzyme-spoiled paint. INCORPORATION: easily incorporated; reduces paint preparation time; avoids the handling of viscous liquids. COMPATIBILITY: compatible with clay-based thickeners; cellulosics and urethane associative thickeners.
