Q1: What is the primary function of BR 100 P in formulations?
A: BR 100 P is a nonionic associative thickener designed to provide efficient rheology modification—particularly enhancing mid-to-high shear viscosity and improving sag resistance—without significantly increasing low-shear viscosity or compromising flow and leveling.
Q2: Is BR 100 P compatible with ionic surfactants and other common formulation ingredients?
A: Yes, as a nonionic polymer, BR 100 P exhibits broad compatibility with anionic, cationic, and amphoteric surfactants, as well as common co-thickeners, biocides, and pH adjusters typically used in waterborne systems.
Q3: How should BR 100 P be incorporated into a formulation?
A: It is recommended to pre-dilute BR 100 P in water or a water/glycol blend prior to addition, followed by gradual incorporation under moderate agitation. Direct addition of the undiluted product is not advised to avoid localized gel formation and ensure uniform dispersion.
Q4: Does BR 100 P require pH adjustment for optimal performance?
A: Unlike many ionic thickeners, BR 100 P functions effectively across a wide pH range (approximately 4–12) and does not rely on pH-dependent ionization—making it particularly suitable for pH-sensitive or buffered systems.
Q5: In which types of end-use applications is BR 100 P most commonly employed?
A: BR 100 P is widely used in architectural coatings, industrial maintenance paints, adhesives, sealants, and cleaning formulations where balanced viscosity control, good film formation, and compatibility with diverse additives are required.
