Applications

TEXIPOL® 63-400 is supplied as an easy to use, low viscosity liquid that gives almost instantaneous thickening when mixed directly into aqueous formulations. As the polymer is already in solution it does not require any neutralization or addition of other additives to promote thickening.

Scott Bader Texipol 63-400 Applications

TEXIPOL® thickeners it can thicken systems as low as ~ pH 5, but is most efficient at pH>7. Typical thickener dosages are probably 0.5-2.0%, though this is system dependent and higher paste viscosities may require
higher addition levels.
