Product overview
HEUR Associative Thickener is a nonionic polyurethane rheology-modifier family used to tune low-, mid- and high-shear viscosity in waterborne paints. Compatibility with binder, surfactants, coalescent, tinting system and application method determines performance.
Function & Usage
- Formulate Architectural & Decorative Paints
Supports opacity, color, film formation, application rheology or durability in compatible architectural-paint formulations. Typical uses: Waterborne architectural paints, KU and ICI viscosity adjustment, Flow, leveling and spatter control.
- Build Industrial & Protective Coatings
Provides a binder, pigment, curing or performance function for compatible industrial and protective coating systems. Typical uses: Waterborne architectural paints, KU and ICI viscosity adjustment, Flow, leveling and spatter control.
Product information
- Applications:
- Waterborne architectural paints, KU and ICI viscosity adjustment, Flow, leveling and spatter control, Adhesives and industrial coatings
- Hazard / Transport:
- Aqueous HEUR products are formulated mixtures. Surfactants, solvents and preservatives determine irritation and transport classification; confirm the exact grade SDS.
- Storage:
- Store tightly closed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Protect from freezing, excessive heat, direct sunlight and contamination; follow the grade-specific minimum storage temperature and shelf life.
