VISCOLAM PS 202
CHEMICAL DESCRIPTION PRODUCT PROPERTIES
VISCOLAM PS 202 is a solvent free water based Solvent content, %: 0
dispersion of a non ionic polyurethane associative Density, g/ml 1,01-1,05
thickener. Please contact our sale representatives for test methods
details.
MAIN USE
VISCOLAM PS 202 allows formulating varnishes with a STORAGE AND HANDLING
nearly Newtonian rheology and is suitable to formulate a VISCOLAM PS 202 must be kept away from direct light, in
wide range of waterborne varnishes, from flat to high gloss. closed containers, in dry conditions and at temperatures
In order to obtain the best balance of flow and sag between +10 °C and + 35°C. When properly stored it is
resistance it can be used in combination with VISCOLAM stable for 12 months from production date.
PS 166 or VISCOLAM PS 167, as well as with other
natural or synthetic thickeners.
VIscolam PS 202 gives varnish with excellent flow and PACKAGING

VISCOLAM PS 202 is specific for Newtonian rheology
profile and allows to formulate gloss and semi-gloss varnish MATERIAL SAFETY

special attention is needed for the type and amount of
surfactant that is used, and the effects of their combination
with the binders and the glycols and co-solvents level.
Water soluble co-solvents, reduce the low shear viscosity.
Ethylene glycol and propylene glycol have the weakest
effect while diethylene glycol mono butyl ether has the
greatest viscosity suppression effect among the glycol-ether
co-solvents.
VISCOLAM PS 202 can be added at any stage of the
production process.
