FORTCRYL 3167

• Description

  Fortcryl 3167 is a rheological modifier based on high-thickening media acrylic polymers that provides Newtonian appearance, with excellent fluidity and leveling in the formation of ink film. In the formulations of acrylic latex paints where non-associative thickeners are used, such as C.M.C. (carboxymethyl-cellulose) or H.E.C. (hydroxy-ethyl-cellulose), it is very common for deficiencies in the application such as excessive spattering, low

  transference and leveling anomalies such as “orange peel” or run-off. Also in this case the ink can present separation of excess phases, what we call syneresis. The main advantages that are observed when using Fortcryl 3167 in the manufacture of acrylic latex paints are:

  • Low splash
  • Good leveling
  • Good transfer
  • Stability in the packaging
  • Good viscosity in “high-shear”
  • Practicality in the production of paints

• Packaging

  Supplied in internally protected barrels and drums with polyethylene bag or containers

• Composition

  Nonyl-phenol-free acrylic thickener.
