Product Introduction | Chemi Tech Chemical is deeply involved in the field of rheological additives, specializing in the research and development of two series of products: alkali swelling thickeners and non-ionic thickeners. Our thickeners can precisely regulate the rheological properties of the system through unique molecular design, effectively solving industry problems such as delamination, sagging, and splashing. They are widely used in water-based coatings, adhesives, personal care products, and other fields. |
🟨 Alkali swelling thickener, non-ionic thickener
1. Alkali swelling thickener
Technical characteristics: pH responsive (activated when pH ≥ 8); Association thickening mechanism; Provide excellent flow leveling performance
Representative model: KMB-A101 (universal type): Balanced high and low shear viscosity; KMB-A102 (high shear type): improves splash resistance; KMB-A103 (low-cost type): economical solution
2. Non ionic thickeners
Core advantage: not affected by pH value; Provide linear viscosity growth; Good compatibility with various systems
Representative model: KMB-A201 (universal type): daily chemical products; KMB-A202 (high viscosity type): adhesive; KMB-A203 (instant type): rapid dispersion;
Case Background
A coatings manufacturer in Guangdong faced severe splattering issues with water-based latex paints during application, resulting in 15% material loss, along with poor coating leveling.
