Rheovis® PU 1250 EC is a polyurethane-based associative rheology modifier designed for thickening and modifying the flow properties of waterborne polymers, aqueous systems, as well as finished products such as paints, coatings, and putties. It appears as a yellowish, white, hazy liquid. This non-ionic, medium pseudoplastic rheology modifier serves as a mid-shear thickener, imparting a low-shear viscosity build with moderate contributions to high-shear viscosity in latex-based paints. Its balanced shear profile, combining low-shear and high-shear contributions, allows for use in spray formulations as a single rheology modifier. Notable benefits include improved flow and gloss, increased hiding power, wash and scrub resistance, and outstanding spatter resistance during roller application.
