    Original: alkali swelling thickener use method

    Alkali swelling thickener

    Alkali swelling thickener

    Non-associative alkali swelling thickeners and associative alkali swelling thickeners (HASEs), both of which are anionic thickeners


    (1) Non-associative alkali swelling thickener

    (1) Non-associative alkali swelling thickener

    Non-associative ASE is a polyacrylate base swelling emulsion that is composed of unsaturated comonomers and copolymers such as carboxylic acids


    The ASE thickening mechanism is that an acid-base neutralization reaction occurs in an alkaline system, the resin is dissolved, and the carboxyl group is electrostatically repulsive

    Use the chain extension of the polymer, so that the viscosity of the system is increased, and the thickening result is achieved


    The thickening effect is greatly affected by pH, and when the pH changes, the thickening effect changes


    (2) Associative alkali swelling thickener

    (2) Associative alkali swelling thickener

    Associative HASE is a hydrophobic modified polyacrylate base swelling emulsion


    Its thickening mechanism is based on the thickening of ASE, coupled with the indignation, that is, the thickener polymer hydrophobic chain and latex particles, surfactants, pigment particles and other hydrophobic parts to form a three-dimensional network structure, in addition to the micelle effect, so that the viscosity of the latex paint system increases


    It is characterized by a high thickening efficiency, because of its low viscosity itself, it is extremely easy to disperse
