- Key Features and Benefits
- ACRYSOL™ RM-12WE Rheology Modifier offers excellent sag resistance with minimal effect on flow and leveling.
- While not capable of providing true thixotropy, it can offer advantages typical of thixotropes.
- These properties include improved brush/roller loading, good anti-drip properties, good in-can structure, and excellent flow/sag balance.
Applications & Uses
- Application Method
- Compatible Polymers & Resins
- Product Applications
- ACRYSOL™ RM-12WE Rheology Modifier can be used in a variety of interior and exterior paint formulations.
- It is particularly suited for use as a co-thickener to improve flow/sag balance with other associative Rheology Modifier, such as ACRYSOL™ RM-2020 E Rheology Modifier.
- ACRYSOL™ RM-12WE Rheology Modifier can be used in gloss, semigloss, sheen and flat formulations based on acrylic, stirene acrylic and vinyl acrylic latex.
- The highly shear thinning nature of this material makes it suitable for spray applications. ACRYSOL™ RM-12WE Rheology Modifier is provided as an easy to handle, solvent-free** and tin-free** liquid that is easy to incorporate in the manufacturing process.
