- Product Features and Benefits
Features
- A 30% solids emulsion; ease of incorporation
- Cost-effective versus low and medium molecular weight HECs.
- Higher low shear viscosity
- Does not itself support microbial growth
Benefits
- Reduced labor costs as no predilution or preneutralization required.
- Lower RM costs.
- Prevents pigment settling
- Reduced RM and overhead costs resulting from lower biocide levels and fewer product returns.

- Product Applications
- ACRYSOL™ TT-615 is an alkali swellable thickener, which achieves its thickening effect when it is neutralized. When added full strength to the letdown, care must be taken to avoid local shock or gross paint instability. There must be sufficient base in the system before the addition of ACRYSOL™ TT-615 to fully neutralize the thickener and still remain on the alkaline side over the normal shelf life of the paint.
- ACRYSOL™ TT-615 should be added slowly with good agitation. If this approach is not sufficient, ACRYSOL™ TT-615 can be diluted 1:1 or 2:1 with water prior to addition to the letdown to reduce the chance for shocking.
