Casastab™ T does not need to be diluted with water; the following procedure should be followed carefully when adding to latex:
Casastab™ T should be added after all other ingredients of the compound. About ten times its own weight of latex (or latex compound) should be gradually stirred into the Casastab™ T This blend should then be added to the bulk of the latex compound. Failure to take these precautions may lead to poor dispersion of other compounding ingredients or non-homogeneous distribution of the Casastab™ T resulting in undispersible lumps. The thickening increases with the dosage used and small additions should be made to reach the required viscosity.
Casastab™ T does not affect the color of the latex product and is not susceptible to attack by bacteria and fungi.
Casastab™ T is not recommended for the preparation of very viscous spreading compounds or doughs
