Dow ACRYSOL RM-8W Thickener

Dow ACRYSOL RM-8W is a solvent-free nonionic urethane-associative thickener in the ACRYSOL series, a low-viscosity turbid liquid, solvent-free and low-odor, featuring efficient mid-shear thickening, balancing flow and sag resistance, enhancing anti-splashing, ideal for water-based architectural coatings, high-gloss paints, elastic coatings, industrial anti-corrosion coatings and exterior insulation finish systems.

Features Of Dow ACRYSOL RM-8W Thickener

  1. Efficient mid-shear thickening - Accurately increases mid-shear viscosity, suitable for multi-gloss coating formulations

  2. Solvent-free & low VOC - No solvent added, low odor, meeting environmental low VOC standards

  3. Anti-sag & anti-splashing - Balances flow and anti-sag, reduces roll coating splashing, improves workability

  4. Wide system compatibility - Compatible with water-based emulsions and multiple additives, suitable for various coating formulations

  5. Enzyme & microbial resistance - Resists enzyme and microbial attack, ensures long-term stability of viscosit

Typical Applications Of Dow ACRYSOL RM-8W Thickener

  1. Water-based interior and exterior architectural latex paints - Optimizes rheology, improves anti-sag and leveling, enhances gloss and workability

  2. High-gloss paints - Improves gloss development and film uniformity, suitable for low-VOC high-gloss formulations

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

  4. Industrial anti-corrosion coatings - Suitable for water-based industrial coatings, improves workability and protection performance

  5. Exterior insulation finish systems - Optimizes rheology of heavy-duty systems, enhances anti-sag and texture retention
