Borchi® Gel 0626

It acts as a non-ionic polyurethane-based thickener that is free of alkylphenol ethoxylate (APEO), HAPs (hazardous air pollutants), tin compounds and any solvents. Borchi® Gel 0626 is easy to use and can be added in any stage of the formulation. The incorporation is recommended after dispersing the pigments and fillers, prior to letting down. In critical systems or under low shear mixing conditions could a pre-dilution in water or a mixture of water / propylenglycol supplementary induce a homogeneous incorporation. It mostly produces strong shear-thinning flow behavior depending on the type of binder used and the other components of the system in medium as well as high-shear range (1000 – 10000 s-1).
