RHEOLATE® HX 6010

Polyurethane solution in water. Acts as an efficient high-shear non-ionic synthetic associative thickener (NiSAT). It is designed as a Newtonian high shear (ICI) builder. Shows an excellent balance of sag and leveling properties. Contributes to great color properties with reduced color float and good color rub-up results. Provides no contribution to mid-shear (KU) viscosity. It has good storage stability and is easy to use. It is an APEO-, VOC-, and tin-free, opaque, pourable and pumpable liquid. Compatible in all resin systems and especially efficient with acrylic and styrene acrylic resins. Can be combined with other associative rheological additives, clay-based thickeners or cellulosic thickeners. Applications include high-quality zero-to-low VOC decorative paints, industrial water-based coating systems and waterborne inks. It is available in Spain, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Portugal and New Zealand.
