HPMC for Paints and Coatings: Enhancing Performance, Stability, and Finish
From smooth interior emulsions to textured real stone paint, formulating high-performance coatings requires precise control over rheology, stability, and application.
Keyoung, as a professional HPMC manufacturer, provides specialized cellulose ether solutions for this diverse industry. Our products, including U-1T30 for general coatings and U-1Z30 for real stone paint, are engineered to act as efficient thickeners, stabilizers, and performance modifiers, delivering superior application properties and final film quality directly from our factory.
Keyoung Product Series for Paints and Coatings
Navigating the right additive for your specific coating type is crucial. Below, we detail our two dedicated HPMC grades, explaining their unique formulations and the distinct value they bring to different segments of the market.
U-1T30 - For General Paints and Coatings
- Product Description: A cellulose ether specially used for coating products.
- Technical Properties: Viscosity 25,000-40,000 mPa·s (2% aq. sol.)
- Applications & Advantages: When added to coatings, it increases viscosity, improves thixotropy and splash resistance. It enhances application performance, extends drying time for better leveling, and improves water resistance after drying. It also helps disperse pigments evenly, preventing settlement.
- Recommended Dosage: 2-4 kg per ton.
U-1Z30 - For Real Stone Paint and Textured Coatings
- Product Description: A cellulose ether product specially used for real stone paint.
- Technical Properties: Viscosity 30,000-45,000 mPa·s (2% aq. sol.)
- Applications & Advantages: Specially formulated for real stone paint. It significantly increases suspension stability of pigments and fillers, preventing settling and caking. It protects moisture, and after special process modification, can inhibit mold growth, improving the mildew resistance of the dry film.
- Recommended Dosage: 2-4 kg per ton.
