RHEOLATE® 678
Nonionic synthetic associative thickener (NiSAT) for low VOC mid-high shear viscosity builder in waterborne systems
RHEOLATE 678 is a nonionic synthetic associative rheological additive for low VOC formulations and is designed for use in waterborne paints based on a wide range of latex systems. RHEOLATE 678 is an additive with superior thickening efficiency in both the mid- and high- shear rate ranges. It provides in-can viscosity and also improves brush-drag.
Waterborne paints with a wide range of various flow characteristics can be formulated by combining RHEOLATE 678 with other Elementis rheological additives.
