Clariant Aristoflex™ PEA is a nonionic polymeric surfactant combining emulsification and substrate wetting functions. Its star-polymer architecture enables simultaneous stabilization of acrylic/styrene monomer droplets (≤1μm) and reduction of coating surface tension to 32 mN/m. The solvent-free liquid provides early-stage colloidal stability during polymerization while maintaining compatibility with HASE thickeners and coalescing agents. Particularly effective in low-VOC architectural coatings and high-shear adhesive formulations .
Polymerization Aid – Reduces coagulum by 40% in high-solid (≥55%) systems .
Substrate Penetration – Lowers contact angle to<15° on porous surfaces .
Process Flexibility – Compatible with shot-growth and continuous feed processes .
Thickener Synergy – Prevents viscosity drop in associative thickener systems .
Regulatory Compliance – APEO-free with<0.1% residual monomers .
Exterior Paints – Enhances wet adhesion on weathered substrates .
Adhesive Films – Improves shear resistance in removable PSAs .
Textile Coatings – Prevents strike-through in fabric backings .
Paper Sizing – Optimizes ASA emulsion stability at high temperatures .
