DeCAL 1209

Chemical Family
Anionics

DeCAL 1209 is a highly efficient anionic liquid polymer dispersion in a non-aqueous carrier used as a general-purpose thickener, providing short flow rheology across a wide pH range. DeCAL 1209 is provided in a highly concentrated form, which provides good viscosity at low concentrations.

Storage Condition

It is recommended to store DeCAL 1209 at temperatures above 10°C to enable easy handling of the product.. DeCAL 1209 is stable for more than 1 year at 20°C in closed containers. It can become highly viscous at low temperatures.

Application Methods

DeCAL 1209 is active over a wide pH range and requires no additional alkali. The product should be added directly to the coating mix with high efficiency mixing in order to avoid localized thickening.. DeCAL 1209 will generally thicken quite rapidly, but the rate of activation is dependent upon temperature, speed of mixing and medium to be thickened.

Thickening Efficiency

DeCAL 1209 provides highly efficient thickening power in water. However in the presence of high electrolyte concentrations we suggest that the use of DeCAL 1209 will give improved long term stability.
