| APPLICATION DETAILS |
KRISHNOL 3141 is a copolymer of acrylate monomers in the form of milky white free flowing emulsion. It is especially tailored for the use as an rheology modifier and alkali swellable thickener in water based medium to low PVC paints. When used in paint system in alkaline pH it gives good thickening with excellent viscosity stability on storage. The amount of KRISHNOL 3141 can be used upto 2 parts on paint weight basis depending upon the viscosity requirement. |
