Alcogum L-11 Latex 25218-88-8 National Starch and Chemical-Alco Chemical Rheology Modifiers / Thickeners >> Alkali-Soluble (associative) Acrylics/ Acrylates Rubber - Elastomer (Chloroprene, Butyl …) SEALANT ADHESIVE ALCOGUM™ polymers are pre-activated high molecular weight rheology modifiers used to viscosify a wide range of adhesive compounds. ALCOGUM thickeners provide stable viscosity over a broad pH range and are resistant to biological degradation. ALCOGUM L-11 is a reactive, acidic thickening agent of the type commonly referred to as an in-situ thickener. It is supplied as a stable anionic latex emulsion with a low as-received viscosity. The addition of any of a variety of alkaline agents results in the neutralization of the acidic groups and the formation of a clear, viscous solution. This solution is an effective thickener for many systems, including various synthetic latexes, latex compounds and latex coatings. For neutralization purposes, ALCOGUM L-11 has an equivalent weight of 14.8(a). Reactive, acidic, stable anionic latex emulsion with a low as-received viscosity. Forms a clear, viscous solution in addition with alkaline agents. Used as a thickenerin various latexes. Provides stable viscosity over a broad pH range. Offers resistance to biological degradation.
