Features Of Dow CAT 15000PA CMC PEO HPMC Thickener

  1. Multi-polymer synergistic formulation combining carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyethylene oxide (PEO), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) for balanced rheology and enhanced suspension stability.

  2. Excellent water solubility and rapid dispersion with minimal clumping, enabling efficient cold-water hydration in industrial mixing systems.

  3. High shear-thinning behavior ideal for spray application, pumping, and high-shear processing without loss of viscosity recovery.

  4. pH-stable performance across broad range (pH 3–11), maintaining thickening efficacy in acidic, neutral, and mildly alkaline formulations.

  5. Non-ionic and low-ash composition ensures compatibility with electrolytes, surfactants, and biocides commonly used in industrial and household products.

Typical Applications Of Dow CAT 15000PA CMC PEO HPMC Thickener

  1. Architectural coatings — provides sag resistance, brush/roll extension, and spatter control in interior and exterior latex paints.

  2. Agrochemical suspensions — stabilizes solid active ingredients in SC (suspension concentrate) and SE (suspo-emulsion) formulations.

  3. Industrial cleaning gels — delivers yield stress and structural integrity for vertical-surface cling and controlled release of actives.

  4. Construction mortars and tile adhesives — improves water retention, workability, and open time without compromising bond strength.

  5. Personal care gels and liquid soaps — imparts smooth texture, clarity, and mildness suitable for rinse-off and leave-on formulations.
