Product Applications
  • Bermocoll® E 320 G is used to stabilize aqueous dispersions while avoiding problematic viscosity increase. Suitable dosage should be determined for each application, but is usually less than 0.5% of the total dispersion weight.
  • Bermocoll® E 320 G is used in latex paints for thickening and stabilizing effects. Normal dosage is 0.4 - 0.8% calculated on the total paint weight.
  • Bermocoll® E 320 G is normally added as a ready stock solution.
  • Bermocoll® E 320 G is also used in aqueous solutions as an adhesive for standard quality wallpapers. 200g (oz) of
  • Bermocoll® E 320 G in 6 litres (approx 1.5 gallon) of cold water will be just right for 12 paper rolls.Solutions should be prepared by addition of Bermocoll® E 320 G at a moderate rate and with good agitation to avoid lump formation.
  • After dispersion of the grains, the agitation speed may be reduced. The average time to attain a noticeable viscosity increase is 3 - 5 minutes, and the time for complete dissolving is 20 - 30 minutes.
