ROVACE™ 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is a new emulsion that offers the same performance as ROVACE 9100 Copolymer Emulsion, but is manufactured without the use of APEO surfactants. ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is a 55% solids vinyl/acrylic binder for interior flat and semigloss paints. This new generation of binder offers exceptional scrub resistance and stain removal and its consistent particle size minimizes variability in paint production. ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is compatible with today's prevalent use of rheologymodifiers that show very good application properties, flow and leveling characteristics. In our lab testing and evaluations we have not seen any differences in formulation parameters, application properties or dry film property differences between ROVACE 9100 and ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion.

TAMOL® 945 is a highly-effective polycarboxylic acid dispersant supplied at 45% solids in the sodium form. It is recommended for use in waterborne paint and coatings formulations where it offers a wide range of performance and formulation benefits.

TAMOL® 963 35% is a versatile, low-cost, non-foaming, water-soluble polyacid dispersant which offers excellent performance in a wide range of latex paint formulations. It is recommended for low sheen flat through semi-gloss acrylic, stirene-acrylic and vinyl acrylic formulations and is effective over a pH range of 7-11 with a wide temperature range.

RHOPLEX® AC-464 is a binder and resin used in waterborne paint applications, functioning as a binder.

ACRYSOL™ DR-110 Rheology Modifier is effective at building viscosity in a wide range of water-borne coatings formulations, from flat to semigloss. It offers application and feel properties to coatings that is very similar to those of hydroxyethylcellulose thickeners, particularly the hydrophobically modified type. Thus, it can provide a very cost-effective alternative to these cellulosic thickeners.

ACRYSOL™ ASE-60 Alkali Soluble Anionic Thickener is an acid containing, acrylic emulsion copolymer. As such, when the emulsion is diluted with water and neutralized with a base, the polymer becomes soluble. Under these conditions, the emulsion clarifies and becomes highly viscous. ACRYSOL™ ASE-60 Thickener is effective at increasing low shear rate (Brookfield) viscosity, resulting in coatings that have highly shear thinning characteristics.

ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier is a nonionic urethane rheology modifier, designed for formulating interior/exterior paints ranging from highly structured to paints that portray nearly Newtonian behavior. ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier rheology modifier shows a very good balance of flow and high shear viscosity. The nature of this balance is dependent on formulations and latex types. This allows the formulation of paints meeting a variety of rheological requirements. ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier can be used as a co-thickener in many types of formulations for attaining a desired balance of low and high shear viscosities. It has excellent water and alkali resistance.

TAMOL® 165A is a high-performance dispersant for latex gloss through flat paints. It is an ammonium salt of a hydrophobic copolymer dispersant that offers enhanced properties to latex paints, resulting in improved water resistance, wet adhesion, early blister resistance, water spot resistance, and corrosion resistance.

Citroflex™ 4 is a low molecular weight citric acid ester partially derived from bio-based raw materials.

TAMOL® 983 is a versatile, low-cost, non-foaming, water-soluble polyacid dispersant which offers excellent performance in a wide range of latex paint formulations. It is recommended for low sheen flat through semi-gloss acrylic, stirene-acrylic and vinyl acrylic formulations and is effective over a pH range of 7-11 with a wide temperature range.

TAMOL® 960 is a versatile, low-cost, non-foaming, water-soluble polyacid dispersant which offers excellent performance in a wide range of latex paint formulations. It is recommended for low sheen flat through semi-gloss acrylic, stirene-acrylic and vinyl acrylic formulations and is effective over a pH range of 7 to 11 with a wide temperature range. TAMOL® 960 offers good compatibility with ZnO pigment.

RHOPLEX® AC-264 is a unique high solids, 100% acrylic emulsion vehicle for exterior latex paints which provides a high level of adhesion to chalky substrates. RHOPLEX® AC-264 represents a slight modification of RHOPLEX® AC-64 is recommended as a substitute for the latter product. As when making any raw material change, the formulator should check key properties such as color acceptance and adhesion.

RHOPLEX® Multilobe™ 400 Emulsion Polymer represents The Dow Chemical Company’s progress in design of an APEO (alkyl phenol ethoxylate) surfactant free binder for low-VOC exterior flat and satin paints, providing excellent durability, color retention, and dirt pick-up resistance.

RHOPLEX® AC-2235M is a 100% acrylic binder designed for use in exterior flat and sheen latex housepaints. The polymer provides a high degree of adhesion and durability. Film build and flow and leveling, however, are not as good as with newer acrylic binders. RHOPLEX® AC-2235M Acrylic Emulsion Polymer is designed to provide the same properties and performance as RHOPLEX® AC-235 in paint formulations, but at a lower price. RHOPLEX® AC-2235M may be substituted on a pound- for-pound basis for RHOPLEX® AC-235. As with any raw material substitution, key properties, such as adhesion and color acceptance, should be evaluated.

TAMOL® 851 is a versatile polyacid dispersant that offers outstanding performance in a wide range of latex paint formulations. TAMOL® 851 is supplied at 30% solids in water and is free of both formaldehyde preservatives and ammonia. It is recommended for flat through semigloss acrylic, stirene/acrylic, and vinyl acrylic formulations. TAMOL® 851 is specifically designed to offer excellent stability in those formulations that contain zinc oxide.
