Products in Building Materials: Thickener

Rheovis® PU 1256 is a polyurethane-based associative thickener, serving as a solvent-free, non-ionic, mid-shear rheology modifier for aqueous coatings. It imparts pseudoplastic behavior to aqueous systems, showcasing pH-independent thickening. This modifier improves flow and gloss, increases hiding power, and provides wash and scrub resistances, along with outstanding spatter resistance during roller application. Its chemical nature involves a polyurethane polymer in water/diluent.

Bermocoll E 320 X is a non-ionic, water soluble cellulose ether. It improves the consistency, the stability, and the water retention of water-based products.

Bermocoll E 230 X is a non-ionic, water soluble cellulose ether. It improves the consistency, the stability, and the water retention of water based products. Bermocoll E 230 X is low viscosity grade of ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose.

TARGON® GA 1 is a setting retarder formulated with sodium phosphate, hydroxypolycarboxylic acid, and an anticaking agent. This white powder can be blended with TYLOSE® MC variants and other processing auxiliaries, such as surfactants. Serving as a setting retarder, it finds application in gypsum plaster that is devoid or has minimized calcium hydroxide content (both manual and mechanical applications), as well as in plaster adhesives.

TARGON® G 2 is a distinct product grounded in condensed phosphates, coupled with an anticaking agent characterized by hydrophobic attributes. It appears as a white, finely textured powder with commendable flowability. Serving as a secondary retarder element for pre-mixed gypsum plaster, this product prevents abrupt caking, establishes consistent setting, extends the time allocated for treatment between cutting and felting, and enhances the qualities of the final treatment.

TARGON® G 5 is a secondary retarder derived from condensed phosphates. It presents as a white, fine, non-hygroscopic powder, serving as a secondary retarder element for pre-mixed gypsum plaster. This product exerts a dispersing influence on the plaster's solid components. It ensures consistent setting and extends the interval for manipulation between cutting and felting stages. TARGON® G 5 further enhances the final treatment characteristics.

Deuteron® SR 28 is a natural biopolymer derived from polysaccharides. It demonstrates solubility in both cold and hot water, forming pseudoplastic solutions. This product exhibits a milky, yellowish appearance and is supplied in powdered form, offering versatility in its application and formulation.

Texicryl® 13-308 is an APEO-free ASE (Alkali-Swellable Emulsion) rheology modifier designed for a broad range of water-based applications. It imparts a short pseudoplastic flow, enhancing the rheological properties of the system. This product is easily mixed into water-based systems and, in many cases, can be added directly to the system to be thickened, followed by pH adjustment.

Texipol® 63-258 is an inverse emulsion thickener known for imparting an extremely short flow to a wide variety of aqueous and non-aqueous compositions, effective across a wide pH range. Supplied as a low-viscosity liquid, it offers almost instantaneous thickening upon direct mixing into the composition. Its polymer, already in solution as the ammonium salt, eliminates the need for additional additives to promote thickening. APEO-free, Texipol® 63-258 is suitable for various applications requiring short flow characteristics.

Texicryl® 13-313 is an alkali swellable thickener crafted specifically for water-based formulations. This product excels in efficiently modifying viscosities at low shear rates to prevent both settling and sagging.

BETOLIN® V30 is an anionic thickener, with easy biological decomposition, based in polysaccharides. Betolin V30 is a thickener and stabilizer very effective.

CELOCELL™ HEC 350 L(B) is a nonionic cellulose derivative that dissolves readily in water, either cold or hot. It is used to produce solutions having a wide range of viscosity. Such solutions are pseudoplastic, that is, they vary in viscosity depending upon the amount of stress applied. CELOCELL™ HEC as a thickener, protective colloid, binder, stabilizer and suspending agent in a variety of industrial applications, such as water-based paints, adhesives, emulsion polymers, toothpaste, cosmetics and building products.

Carboxy Methyl Cellulose(CMC) is also named as Sodium Carboxy Methyl Cellulose,is easy soluble in both cold and hot water. It provides good properties of thickening, water retention, film-forming, rheology and lubricity, which enable CMC cover a wind range of applications like food, personal care products, industrial paints, ceramics, oil drilling, building materials etc.
