TAFIGEL® PUR 56

TAFIGEL PUR 56 is designed as an "associative thickener" which builds up and stabilizes viscosity by forming a network between polyurethane, binder molecules and pigment particles. TAFIGEL PUR 56 can be used alone or in combination with other TAFIGEL thickeners as well as with further thickener technologies. TAFIGEL PUR 56 is recommended for use in following systems: Interior and exterior paints, latex paints, anti-corrosive paints, emulsion plasters, adhesives and joint fillers.

TAFIGEL PUR 45 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 45 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 45 show minimal pseudoplasticity, similar to the rheology of solvent borne systems. TAFIGEL PUR 45 is recommended for use in following systems: Interior and exterior paints, latex paints, anticorrosive paints, emulsion plasters, adhesives, printing inks and joint fillers.

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.

TAFIGEL PUR 54 is a low viscous, solvent-free associative thickener which builds up and stabilizes viscosity by forming a network between polyurethane, binder molecules and other paint ingredients. TAFIGEL PUR 54 can be used alone or in combination with other TAFIGEL thickeners, as well as with further technology thickeners. TAFIGEL PUR 54 is recommended for use in following systems: Interior and exterior paints, latex paints, anti-corrosive paints, emulsion plasters, adhesives, putties and printing inks.
