SNF PF165A Coating Printing Thickener

SNF PF165A is a high-performance associative thickener from SNF’s PF series, specifically engineered for water-based coating and printing inks. It delivers excellent rheology control, outstanding gloss retention, and superior compatibility with acrylic and styrene-acrylic systems. Non-ionic, low-VOC, and easy to incorporate, it ensures stable viscosity across shear rates while enhancing leveling and reducing spattering.

Features Of SNF PF165A Coating Printing Thickener

  1. High-shear rheology modifier delivering excellent viscosity stability under mechanical stress during high-speed coating and printing.

  2. Non-ionic, low-foaming formulation compatible with acrylic, styrene-acrylic, and polyurethane-based systems.

  3. Enables precise rheological control—improves pigment suspension, reduces settling, and enhances film uniformity.

  4. Low dosage efficiency: effective at 0.2–0.8 wt% in aqueous formulations, minimizing raw material cost and formulation complexity.

  5. Excellent compatibility with common co-additives including dispersants, defoamers, and crosslinkers used in functional coatings.

Typical Applications Of SNF PF165A Coating Printing Thickener

  1. Water-based textile printing pastes for reactive, pigment, and disperse dye systems.

  2. Functional coatings for paper and board—e.g., barrier coatings, release liners, and decorative laminates.

  3. Architectural and industrial interior wall coatings requiring sag resistance and brush/roller application performance.

  4. Electrophoretic and electrodeposition primers where controlled viscosity and particle dispersion are critical.

  5. Flexible packaging inks and overprint varnishes requiring high gloss retention and substrate adhesion.
