RT712F Polyurethane Thickener
RT712F PU thickener is a non-ionic, highly pseudoplastic, hydrophobically modified polyurethane rheology modifier that exhibits exceptional thixotropic properties.
It is ideally suited for use in stone-effect paints, as well as in high-gloss, low-VOC coating systems.
- Enhances suspension properties.
- High transparency.
- Excellent splash resistance and water resistance.
- Low foaming and good film-forming properties.
- Effectively increases low-shear viscosity.

Formula Application
Recommended Dosage: We recommend an additional level of 0.05% to 0.5% for RT712F. In addition, the product should be introduced slowly while under agitation, followed by high-speed dispersion to ensure it is thoroughly and uniformly distributed throughout the system.
Dosage requirements vary depending on the specific formulation; for precise formulation guidance, please contact us.
Compatibility
RT712F performs exceptionally well in the styrene-acrylic, pure acrylic, and acrylate-acrylic systems. It has good compatibility with both cellulose-based and alkali-swelling thickening agents and can be used freely in combination with them.
RT712F can be used as the main or auxiliary thickening agent to achieve excellent fluidity.
RT712F Typical Applications
RT712F improves viscosity control, leveling, and storage stability while providing a smooth surface finish and excellent application experience.
RT712F enhances sag resistance, weathering performance, and coating stability, helping achieve a uniform and durable finish for exterior wall paints.

FAQ About RT712F
RT712F not only enhances the spraying performance and sand resistance of real stone paint, but also provides excellent rheological properties, high gloss, and long-lasting and rich paint film effect for water-based coatings.
RT712F is not only suitable for water-based interior and exterior wall paints, but also can be applied to various water-based emulsion systems, such as industrial coatings, textured coatings, and other water-based building paints.
During the spraying process, it can effectively prevent the formation of fog on the paint film and also make the paint film denser and more evenly covered. Therefore, it is an ideal choice for spraying.
