CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 is a modified urea dissolved in DMSO. CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 is a pourable liquid rheology modifier for post addition to water-based coatings such as water-dilutable alkyds and acrylic emulsions. It was developed to ensure particular suitability for metalcoating as its formula is lithium chloride-free. CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 should be added to the coating as a slow stream under low to medium shear conditions to ensure sufficient dispersion. Although efficient stirring is required to ensure homogeneity, elevated temperatures are not required for activation and the use of excessive shear should be avoided. view less
CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 is a pre-activated amide wax dispersed in a mixture of xylene and alcohols. It is a rheology modifier in paste form for post-addition to solvent-based industrial coatings and industrial wood finishes. The use of CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 p...view more
CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 is a pre-activated amide wax dispersed in a mixture of xylene and alcohols. It is a rheology modifier in paste form for post-addition to solvent-based industrial coatings and industrial wood finishes. The use of CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 provides a very simple and direct means of introducing shear-thinning rheology with thixotropic viscosity recovery to coating formulations. view less
CRAYVALLAC® LA-150 is a pourable liquid rheology modifier supplied in Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) for post addition to medium to high polarity solvent based coatings. It shows excellent control of sedimentation combined with ease of application.
