Rheology Solutions Tailored to Your Formulation Challenges
Controlling rheology well is important for your product’s stability and final quality. By choosing suitable thickener technologies, you can control viscosity, flow behavior, sag resistance, and workability in different formulation systems.
Whether you are developing paints, coatings, mortars, or concrete products, Celotech Ruico can help you optimize thickener selection based on your specific requirements. With expertise in cellulose ethers and synthetic thickeners, we support you in overcoming formulation challenges and achieving more consistent production performance.
Achieving the Right Rheology Balance
In modern coating and dry-mix mortars, it is critical to balance low-shear viscosity and high-shear viscosity. Our technical team specializes in fine-tuning the synergy between non-ionic cellulose ethers and associative synthetic thickeners. By analyzing molecular weight distribution and hydrophobic modification, we help you eliminate syneresis, prevent roller spattering, and achieve superior leveling without sacrificing film build or open time.
What Is the Difference Between Cellulose Thickeners and Synthetic Thickeners?
Cellulose thickeners are derived from natural plants and can improve viscosity and water retention. Synthetic thickeners are usually polymeric and can control rheology and flow properties.
When to Use an Acrylic Thickener?
If you need efficient viscosity improvement and rheology control in waterborne systems, you can use acrylic thickeners.
What Is CMC Commonly Used For?
CMC is commonly used to thicken and stabilize coating and construction materials.
What Is the Difference Between HEC and MHEC?
HEC is mainly used to control viscosity in coating and dry-mix mortars. MHEC provides a higher gel temperature and is usually more expensive.
Can Acrylic and Polyurethane Thickeners Be Used Together?
Yes. You can combine acrylic and PU thickeners for improved performance.
