Viscosity Control
RHOPLEX® WL-81 polymer is designed so that external thickeners are not required. Many of the glycol ethers on the market today will swell the latex particles, thereby increasing their effective volume and increasing the viscosity. The addition of ammonia or other amines (e.g., dimethylethanolamine) to the swollen particles will further increase viscosity.
Regulatory & Compliance
- Certifications & Compliance
- Contains any chemicals listed on Prop 65 (including impurities, residues, catalysts, monomers, and by-products and excluding heavy metals)?
