TAFIGEL® PUR 84

TAFIGEL® PUR 84 is designed as an “associative thickener” which builds up and stabilizes viscosity by forming a network between polyurethane, binder molecules and other paint ingredients. TAFIGEL® PUR 84 can be used alone or in combination with other TAFIGEL® thickeners, as well as with further thickener technologies. Aqueous gloss paints, thickened with TAFIGEL® PUR 84 show minimal pseudoplasticity, similar to the rheology of solvent borne systems. TAFIGEL® PUR 84 is recommended for use in following systems: Interior and exterior paints, latex paints, anticorrosive paints, adhesives, and printing inks. Advantages of using TAFIGEL® PUR 84: thickening independent of pH excellent flow, leveling and gloss good spatter resistance excellent colour acceptance on tinting The performance of polyurethane thickeners is affected by many factors including binder type, co-solvents, coalescing agents, surfactants/wetting agents, pigments and flattening agents. The interactions of TAFIGEL® PUR 84 with these compounds allow varied possibilities for rheology adjustment.
