Products in Rheology Modifiers & Stabilizers: Leveling Agent

MERPOL® A is an alcohol phosphate that offers attributes such as low foam generation, effective wetting, and reliable emulsification. It serves a range of applications, including metal processing, composite handling, printing ink manufacturing, and coatings. Classified within the chemical group of alcohol phosphate esters, its functions encompass being a plastic anti-static agent, pigment dispersant, and textile lubricating agent.

Silsurf®B608 is a silicone glycol copolymer. It is self-emulsifying in water and is designed to be emulsifier or wetting agent in various personal care and industrial chemical formulations. Silsurf®B608 has an INCI name of PEG-8 Dimethicone.

The 4354 Thinner 4 is a slower drying thinner for use with the MG Chemical’s urethane and acrylic conformal products. The thinner as excellent solvent strength, making it a good oil and grease remover. It has very low water solubility, so it is unlikely to absorb water and create blush. Its drying speed is slow enough to promote excellent leveling, but it is fast enough to accommodate a reasonable assembly line speed.

The 4353 Thinner 3 is a moderate speed drying thinner for use with the MG Chemical’s conformal coating products. The thinner promotes good flow properties and suppresses blushing.

Soyanol™ 5000X-HS is viscosity and flow modifier for solvent borne coatings, non-phthalate plasticizer, it is compatible with most conventional resin systems and exempt solvents, provides excellent dispersion characteristics in paints and stains, deep penetration is excellent for wood and concrete applications, it improves leveling, increases open time for better cure rates and smoother finishes and it is more efficient than other options (use less, get more).

Rheological additive for water-based coating systems, VOC-, APEO- and organotin-free. SCHWEGO pur 8051 is free of organotin and is therefore especially recommended for the use in textile printing inks according to Oeko-Tex® Standard 100. SCHWEGO pur 8051 is suitable for interior and exterior wall paints, water-based coatings and anticorrosive coatings, modified resin plasters and fillers based on polyacrylates, styrene copolymers or PU-dispersions. SCHWEGO pur 8051 shows a high gloss retention in glossy emulsion paints compared to acrylic and cellulosic thickening additives.

CLiQFLOW® 675 VR is a tin-free polyurethane based rheological additivefor aqueous clear and pigmented systems. The associative thickener increases mid and high shear viscosity and provides a slightly shear thinning flow behavior to aqueous systems.
