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
Efficient mid-shear thickening - Increases mid-shear viscosity, aids high-shear viscosity, reduces high-shear thickener dosage
Solvent-free & low VOC - Solvent-free, APEO-free, designed for ultra-low VOC formulations, meeting environmental standards
Excellent sag resistance & leveling - Balances sag resistance and leveling, improves surface smoothness, suitable for high-build and thin coatingsDow Inc.
PVA/VAE dedicated - Ideal for PVA/VAE and vinyl-acrylic formulations, excellent thickening efficiency
Anti-spatter & stable storage - Enhances anti-spatter performance, resists microbial attack, ensures long-term viscosity stability
Interior & exterior latex paints - Suitable for vinyl-acrylic systems, improves workability and surface finishDow Inc.
Elastic coatings - Enhances anti-sag of elastic coatings, improves storage stability
Stone-like coatings - Suitable for thick coating process, balances texture retention and sag resistance
Water-based industrial paints - Fits ultra-low VOC formulations, improves workability and protection
Water-based wood coatings - Optimizes leveling and gloss, suitable for low-odor eco-friendly formulations
