ACUSOL™ 820 Rheology Modifier

What is ACUSOL™ 820 Rheology Modifier?

A Hydrophobically modified Alkali Soluble acrylic polymer Emulsion (HASE) with unusually high aqueous thickening and stabilizing efficiency. When neutralized to a pH above 7 by adding alkalis, ACUSOL™ 820 polymer thickens instantly. The instantaneous effect on viscosity and easy incorporation of ACUSOL™ 820 polymer into alkaline cleaner formulations offer savings in valuable production time that cannot be matched by carbomer or cellulosic thickeners, requiring predissolution and elimination of lumps.

Uses

All-purpose cleaners
Floor cleaners
Hand dishwashing liquids
Laundry detergents
Automatic dishwashing gels
Oven cleaners

Benefits
