Specifications Of Solvay RHODOPOL TG Thickener

Appearance
Usually presented in powder or granulated form. Some variants might appear as cream - colored granules.
Particle Size
Specific values vary by product type. For some versions, ≤75 µm particles may account for ≤5%, while particles ≤1180 µm could be
>95%.
pH (1% Aqueous Solution)
Generally, it falls within the range of 6.0 - 8.0, which ensures compatibility with a wide range of formulations.
Brookfield Viscosity
When measured as a 1% solution in 1% KCl, using a Brookfield LV viscometer at 60 rpm with spindle n° 3, the viscosity is typically
in the range of 1200 - 1600 cp. This viscosity range is ideal for its thickening applications.
Solubility
It is soluble in water or specific solvents relevant to its application. Once dissolved, it forms a viscous colloidal solution
that can effectively thicken the system.
Shelf Life
Under proper storage conditions, it has an approximate shelf life of 24 months, ensuring long - term usability for manufacturers.
