RHEOTECH™ 3800
Acrylic associative thickener for water-based systems
Product overview
Rheotech™ 3800 is an acrylic associative thickener for water-based systems (also called HASE). It is designed to improve both the rheology and the color acceptance of water-based formulations. Its outstanding effectiveness at medium shear rates allows to control very easily the perceived quality of paints during handling and to facilitate coating by roll or by brush, especially for finishing touches.
