Texicryl® 13-308 is an APEO-free ASE (Alkali-Swellable Emulsion) rheology modifier designed for a broad range of water-based applications. It imparts a short pseudoplastic flow, enhancing the rheological properties of the system. This product is easily mixed into water-based systems and, in many cases, can be added directly to the system to be thickened, followed by pH adjustment.

Chemical Family: Alkali Swellable Emulsion (ASE) Thickener, Carboxylated Acrylic Copolymer

Product Applications
  • APEO free ASE rheology modifier used in a broad range of waterbased applications. Gives a short pseudoplastic flow. Active from pH 7.5 -12.
  • Texicryl® 13-308 is easily mixed into water-based systems and in many cases can be added directly to the system to be thickened followed by pH adjustment, if necessary. The final pH of the thickened system should be in the range of 8.0 – 9.0 for optimum thickening efficiency and for long term stability. Texicryl® 13-308 can also be pre-gelled and added to the system. This product can be slightly water sensitive.
