Description

2-Propenamide, Telomer With 1-Dodecanethiol And 1-Ethenyl-2-Pyrrolidinone CAS NO 121028-91-9 is a specialized polymeric surfactant and rheology modifier synthesized from acrylamide, 1-dodecanethiol, and vinylpyrrolidone. This unique copolymer is engineered to provide exceptional performance as a stabilizer, thickener, and dispersant in complex formulations. It is a critical raw material for industrial manufacturers seeking to enhance the stability, texture, and application properties of their products. Key industries that rely on this advanced polymer include coatings, adhesives, personal care, and water treatment.

Application

• Coatings & Paints: Acts as a rheology modifier and anti-settling agent to improve brushability, sag resistance, and pigment dispersion in water-based and solvent-based systems.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Functions as a thickening and stabilizing agent to control viscosity, enhance open time, and prevent phase separation in pressure-sensitive and construction adhesives.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Used as a film former, stabilizer, and viscosity enhancer in hair styling products, creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Water Treatment: Serves as a flocculant aid and sludge dewatering agent in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment processes.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Employed as a finishing agent, softener, and dyeing auxiliary to improve fabric hand feel and color uniformity.
• Paper Manufacturing: Utilized as a retention aid and drainage promoter to improve paper strength and production efficiency.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Applied in drilling muds and completion fluids as a viscosifier and fluid loss control additive.
• Industrial Cleaners: Enhances the viscosity and substrate adherence of liquid soaps, degreasers, and hard surface cleaners.
