Dow ACRYSOL DR72 Thickener

Dow ACRYSOL DR72 is an anionic hydrophobically modified alkali-swellable associative thickener in the ACRYSOL series, a milky-white low-viscosity liquid, solvent-free, enhancing low-shear viscosity, sag/settling/water-splitting resistance, cellulose-like feel, ideal for water-based architectural, elastic, stone-like, industrial and wood coatings, a cost-effective cellulose substitute

Features Of Dow ACRYSOL DR72 Thickener

  1. Efficient mid-shear thickening - Increases mid-shear viscosity, aids high-shear viscosity, reduces high-shear thickener dosage

  2. Solvent-free & low VOC - Solvent-free, APEO-free, designed for ultra-low VOC formulations, meeting environmental standards

  3. Excellent sag resistance & leveling - Balances sag resistance and leveling, improves surface smoothness, suitable for high-build and thin coatingsDow Inc.

  4. PVA/VAE dedicated - Ideal for PVA/VAE and vinyl-acrylic formulations, excellent thickening efficiency

  5. Anti-spatter & stable storage - Enhances anti-spatter performance, resists microbial attack, ensures long-term viscosity stability

Typical Applications Of Dow ACRYSOL DR72 Thickener

  1. Interior & exterior latex paints - Suitable for vinyl-acrylic systems, improves workability and surface finishDow Inc.

  2. Elastic coatings - Enhances anti-sag of elastic coatings, improves storage stability

  3. Stone-like coatings - Suitable for thick coating process, balances texture retention and sag resistance

  4. Water-based industrial paints - Fits ultra-low VOC formulations, improves workability and protection

  5. Water-based wood coatings - Optimizes leveling and gloss, suitable for low-odor eco-friendly formulations
