Thickener

Indofil ASE 60

It is a cross-linked acrylic emulsion copolymer. When emulsion is diluted with water and neutralised with a base, each emulsion particle swells greatly & resulting in improving low shear rate (Brookfield) viscosity & provides highly shear thinning flow property to the final paint.

Technical Information
Milky white emulsion with 28 % solid.
 

Features & Advantages

• Reduces roller spatter compared to high molecular weight cellulosic thickeners.
• It offers a high degree of resistance to bacterial and enzymatic attack, resulting in long term paint viscosity stability.
• Excellent sag resistance.

Applications
Suitable for mid to high PVC paints & also recommanded recommended for use in textured paints.
 

Additional Information
It can be used  alone or combination with other thickeners also.

Rheofil AT 140

Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsion. It is very easy to handle and incorporate into the system.  It can be added at different stage as long as paint system is sufficiently alkaline during the incorporation and sufficient mixing is available. It could be incorporated either at mill base stage before or after addition of pigment and extender to give mill base consistency or at the let down stage..

Technical Information
Milky white emulsion with 30 % solid.
 

Features & Advantages

• Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Thickener.
• Useful in wide range of water based paint system..
• Provides superior flow and leveling, excellent stability.
• Partial replacement of HEC which helps reducing formulation cost.

Applications
Suitable for mid to high PVC paints & also recommanded recommended for use in textured paints.
