- Bacteria ResistanceSag Resistance
Indofil Industries Indofil ASE 60 is alkali swell able acrylic copolymer emulsion. Indofil ASE 60 forms viscous solution at low concentrations upon neutralization with a base. When the emulsion is diluted with water & neutralized with a base, each emulsion particle swells greatly. The emulsion clarifies under these conditions & becomes highly viscous.
