ACULYN™ 22 Polymer is an anionic hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble acrylic polymer emulsion (HASE) with unusually high aqueous thickening and stabilizing efficiency. This thickener is a liquid, cold-processable product that instantaneously thickens upon neutralization providing ease of handling and increased manufacturing efficiency. ACULYN™ 22 Polymer is offered at 30% solids and is compatible with high levels of surfactants. The polymer has a well-established toxicological profile and is safe in normal use.
