RHOPLEX™ ASE-95NP Rheology Modifier
A high molecular weight alkali-swellable acrylic emulsion which contributes to non-Newtonian rheology properties. This rheology modifier is recommended for specialty applications or in conjunction with other RHOPLEX™ Thickeners to build viscosity at high shear rates. RHOPLEX™ ASE-95NP is not recommended as a primary thickener in most applications.
Uses:
- Interior and exterior paints
- Wide range of sheen through high gloss paints, including low-VOC formulations
- Water-based architectural and industrial coatings
- Utility with all binder types
Additive Applications - Exterior Insulation Finish Systems (EIFS)
- Paint/coatings
- Paper
- Textiles
- Paper processing and finishing
- Building and Construction
