- Product Highlights
- RHEOLUXE 812 is a polyurethane based thickener developed to impart rheological control in emulsion systems. It is a highly efficient rheological modifier for use in formulations with difficult to thicken conditions such as extreme pH or high electrolyte concentration.
- RHEOLUXE 812 can be used in “cold process” systems. It is a non-ionic thickener, which provides shear thinning viscosity control without affecting the formula esthetics; allowing light textures to remain light and soft to the touch.
- RHEOLUXE 812 is supplied in a convenient 25% solids solution that readily thickens aqueous phases for use in emulsion type formulations.
- RHEOLUXE 812 may be incorporated at any point in the emulsification process. RHEOLUXE 812 may settle upon storage. It should be mixed well before use
