Highly efficient thickener for aqueous systems with excellent low-shear viscosity build.
Outstanding water retention and film-forming capability in cementitious and gypsum-based formulations.
Good compatibility with common surfactants, electrolytes, and biocides used in industrial and construction applications.
pH-stable performance across a broad range (3–11), enabling formulation flexibility without viscosity loss.
Free-flowing, easy-to-disperse powder with low dust generation and consistent batch-to-batch reproducibility.
Cement-based tile adhesives and grouts.
Gypsum plasters and joint compounds.
Exterior insulation finishing systems (EIFS) basecoats.
Self-leveling underlayments (SLUs).
Water-based architectural coatings and texture finishes.
