Rheovis® PU 1192
Rheovis® PU 1192 outperforms earlier generations of pseudoplastic polyurethane rheology modifiers. It provides stronger low-shear thickening and easier incorporation in a wide range of aqueous formulations. It is especially suitable for aqueous spray applications where excellent sag resistance is required. In contrast to conventional thickeners, Rheovis® PU 1192 has no negative influence on gloss or opacity and, due to its non-ionic character, also provides an excellent water resistance. Rheovis® PU 1192 provides the optimum performance in aqueous clear and high gloss top coatings, as well as anti-corrosive paints and thick layer systems.
