ACRYSOL ASE-75

ALKALI-SOLUBLE ANIONIC THICKENER
  • Master Product Number: MITM11323
  • Product SKUs: ITM18129, ITM18250

Product Details

ACRYSOL™ ASE-75 Thickener is an acid containing, acrylic emulsion copolymer. When the emulsion is diluted with water and neutralized with a base, each emulsion particle swells greatly. The emulsion clarifies under these conditions and becomes highly viscous.
 
ACRYSOL ASE-75 Thickener is effective in improving mid to low shear rate (Brookfield) viscosity, resulting in coatings that have highly shear thinning characteristics.
