  • Features

    • Improves flow and leveling properties of water-based coatings systems mainly in high gloss emulsions
    • Build viscosity in the low shear range
    • Swells water in the coating instead of associating with binders
    • APEO-free
    • Tin-free

  • Applications

    • PUD resin systems for artificial leather
    • Adhesives and sealants
    • Highly effective Alkali swellable emulsion (ASE) thickener for a wide range of water-based coatings

  • Dosage

    • 0.1 – 2.0% on total formulation

    Borchi® Gel 0800 can be added directly to the batch as supplied. The exact dosage should be experimentally determined

  • Storage

    Protect from the effects of weathering and store at temperatures between 5 and 30 °C. Once opened, containers should be resealed immediately after each removal of the product. Upon storage, cloudiness could develop. In our work the cloudiness formation showed no influence on the thickening performance of the product, however we recommend that you evaluate the product performance in your own formulations to be sure.

  • Safety

    Please refer to our safety data sheet for information relating to product safety.
