Feature | Benefit |
---|---|
Wide range of molecular weights | Allows for precise viscosity control, creating formulas ranging from thin solutions to gels. |
Good chemical compability | Easy to formulate with other ingredients, including surfactants, solvents, gums, and resins. Produces stable solutions with good clarity. |
Pseudoplastic rheology | Create viscous solutions with good cling, less dripping, and a more appealing feel that are easy to dispense and spread on surfaces. |
Nonionic | Tolerates both cationic and anionic surfactants as well as salts in the formulation. |
pH Stability | Stable from pH 2 to 12. Produces stable viscosity in both acidic and basic systems, allowing formulation flexibility. |
Viscosity stability | Improved shelf life and reduced disposal of expired or out-of-specification products. |
Low usage rate | Recommended use rates range from 0.5% to 2.0%. Improved efficiency and reduced formulation cost. |
