RHEOBYK-415

RHEOBYK-415 is a liquid rheology additive for solvent-borne baking coatings and forced drying systems to improve anti-sagging properties. It works together with the binder and builds a three-dimensional network via hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. In addition to the dosage level and the polarity of the system, the degree of disentanglement of the higher molecular weight additive is key to the effectiveness. The higher molecular weight and the more pronounced pseudoplastic flow behavior are the reasons for the more temperature-stable viscosity behavior of RHEOBYK-415, even at higher drying temperatures.
