Product Feature:
*The hydrolysis stability is very good and can be
used with various kinds of emulsions including pure
acrylic emulsions with high PH;
*When added to latex paint, it is absorbed onto the
latex particles, softening the particles and causing
better fusion in the paint;
*It is easy to be mixed into latex and does not affect
the stability of coating at a higher content ;
*Improved paint rheology and pigment wettability;
*Improved film hardness without cracking;
*Improved scrubbing resistance.
