Associative Thickener for Architectural Coatings
Associative thickeners for architectural coatings are hydrophobically modified water-soluble polymers that build viscosity through intermolecular associations in latex systems. They provide excellent leveling, gloss development, and sag resistance compared to purely cellulosic thickeners. These products are compatible with a wide range of latex binders and pigment dispersions used in interior and exterior paints.
