RHEOVIS PU 1185
RHEOVIS PU 1185
RHEOVIS® PU 1185 remarkably improves the stability of aqueous coatings providing similar performance to inorganic, cellulose or acrylic thickeners. In contrast to these thickeners, RHEOVIS PU 1185 has no negative influence on gloss or opacity and has excellent water resistance due to its non-ionic character. It imparts an excellent balance of sag and flow properties in a coating.
RHEOVIS PU 1185 provides the optimum performance in vinyl acrylic systems in a wide range of sheens for both interior and exterior formulations.
Features & Benefits
- Provides excellent film build along with flow and leveling and spatter resistance in latex-based coatings resulting in superior finished paint appearance
- Recommended for use in wide range of interior and exterior coatings from flat to floss paints and coatings
- Easy to incorporate into the paint production process due to its low viscosity
- Can by formulated along with cellulosic thickeners or replace cellulosic thickeners altogether
- Product has been designed for use with vinyl acrylic and ethylene vinyl acetate latex formulations as well as shows good applicability when used in acrylic and styrene acrylic latex formulations
