ACRYSOL I-62A

AQUEOUS ALKALI-SOLUBLE RESIN FOR PIGMENT DISPERSION
  • Master Product Number: MITM11328
  • Product SKUs: ITM18137, ITM18255, ITM19534

Product Details

ACRYSOL™ I-62A Emulsion is an aqueous alkali-soluble acrylic copolymer which has broad utility as a dispersant for organic and inorganic pigments.  As a pigment dispersant, it offers excellent dispersion for whites and a variety of deep-tone formulations. It is especially useful in formulations designed for thermosetting applications.  It is a waterborne colloidal dispersion containing both carboxylic acid and hydroxyl functionality, and as such will crosslink with melamine-formaldehyde or urea-formaldehyde resins, thereby becoming part of the polymer matrix and improving the film properties.

Features and Benefits

  • High pigment dispersing efficiency
  • Broad formulation latitude
  • Offers improved water resistance of coating
  • Cross-links with cross-linker chemistries such as aminoplast resins
  • Supplied un-neutralized, allowing choice of neutralizer
