RHEOVIS® HS 1162 is an outstanding rheology-control thickener for water based coatings with an extreme low –shear to thixotropic flow behavior.

The polymer provides the rheology–control effect through extensive swelling of the high-molecular-weight polymer in combination with a hydrophobic component in alkali, in the presence of water.

This leads to an excellent balance between sag-resistance and leveling which is ideally for airless spray applications or non-dripping paints and stains.

RHEOVIS® HS 1162 is most effective between pH 8 to 10.

• Thixotropic low-shear thickener
• Excellent balance between sag and leveling
• Outstanding efficiency
• For paints and plasters
