- Product Benefits
- CRAYVALLAC® LA-350 is a modified urea dissolved in DMSO and is a pourable liquid rheology modifier for post addition to water-based coatings such as water- dilutable alkyds and acrylic emulsions.
- CRAYVALLAC® LA-350 should be added to the coating as a slow stream under low to medium shear conditions to ensure sufficient dispersion.
- Although efficient stirring is required to ensure homogeneity, elevated temperatures are not required for activation and the use of excessive shear should be avoided.
- Due to the multitude of formulations, processing methods and application conditions used in the field, we strongly recommend that all products containing CRAYVALLAC® LA-350 be tested thoroughly to ensure their suitability for their intended end use.
