Description

Ethyl Acrylate-Methacrylic Acid Polymer, Ethanolamine Salt is a synthetic, water-soluble polymer salt widely used as a versatile rheology modifier and stabilizer. This compound is valued for its ability to provide excellent thickening, suspension, and film-forming properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical raw material for formulators in the coatings, adhesives, personal care, and textile industries, where consistent performance and quality are paramount.

Application

• Coatings & Paints: Acts as a thickener, rheology modifier, and stabilizer in water-based architectural and industrial coatings to prevent sagging and improve application properties.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Used to adjust viscosity, enhance stability, and improve the bonding characteristics of aqueous adhesive formulations.
• Personal Care Products: Serves as a film-forming agent, thickener, and stabilizer in hair styling gels, creams, and lotions.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a thickener for printing pastes and as a finishing agent to improve fabric hand feel and durability.
• Paper Coatings: Functions as a binder and rheology control agent in coatings to enhance printability and surface strength.
• Industrial Cleaners: Provides thickening and stabilizing effects in liquid detergent and cleaner formulations.
