- Properties and Applications
TAFIGEL PUR 65 is an associative thickener which builds up and stabilizes viscosity by forming a network between polyurethane, binder molecules and other paint ingredients. TAFIGEL PUR 65 provides strong pseudoplastic rheological profile with excellent shear thinning characteristics. It can be used alone or in combination with other TAFIGEL thickeners, as well as with further thickener technologies. TAFIGEL PUR 65 is designed for use in industrial coatings. It is also recommended for following systems: Interior and exterior paints, latex paints, anti-corrosive paints, emulsion plasters, adhesives and putties.
Advantages of using TAFIGEL PUR 65:
- high sag resistance
- good flow, leveling and gloss
- excellent atomization for spray application
- can be used over a wide pH range
The performance of polyurethane thickeners is affected by many factors including binder type, co-solvents, coalescing agents, surfactants/wetting agents, pigments and flattening agents. The interactions of TAFIGEL PUR 65 with these compounds allow varied possibilities for rheology adjustment.
- Recommended Levels and Use
TAFIGEL PUR 65 can be added undiluted to the coating formulation. Ladder studies are recommended to determine optimum levels. Normal dosage ranges from 0.3 - 2 % on total formulation.

- Storage and Handling
TAFIGEL PUR 65 is not sensitive to freezing. The product should be stored cool and dry. During storage an invisible separation may occur. Consequently TAFIGEL PUR 65 has to be stirred properly before use. The minimum shelf life in closed containers is 15 months from the date of manufacture.
