Pemulen™ 1622 polymer

Pemulen™ 1622 polymer is a lightly crosslinked, hydrophobically-modified, acrylic acid copolymer powder. It is designed to form stable oil-in-water emulsions at low use levels. It is a cost-effective polymer for low viscosity emulsions recommended for use in sprayable automotive products, polishes and protectants.

Features and Benefits

  • Allows for cold or hot processing enabling flexible processing requirements
  • Enables formulation of water-resistant oil-in-water emulsions
  • No HLB calculation required when formulating
  • Offers high efficiency at low usage levels, thereby enabling cost-effective formulations to be developed
  • Provides exceptional emulsion stability in low viscosity sprayable formulations
  • Provides shear-thinning rheology to enable easy pumping and dispensing of finished products
  • Simplifies emulsification of silicones and water

Applications

  • Surface Care: Cleansers, Floor Cleaners and Waxes, Polishes

Functions

  • Rheology Modification
  • Suspension
