- Chemical Family:Alkali Swellable Emulsion (ASE) Thickener
- Functions:Thickener, Rheology Modifier
- End Uses:Waterborne Coating, Stains
- Labeling Claims:Solvent-free
- Physical Form:Liquid
DeCAL 1005 is a hydrophobically modified synthetic alkali-swellable, solvent-free, and liquid thickener for waterborne systems. It is highly effective in increasing low shear viscosities as well as yield values. As a result, levels of use can be significantly reduced when replacing the usual low shear effective thickeners with DeCAL 1005.
