Technical Advantages: Beyond Conventional Additives

  1. Superior Rheological Control

    • Pseudoplastic Behavior: Thins under shear (spraying/agitation) for easy application, then rethickens to prevent sagging/settling .

    • pH & Temperature Stability: Functions in pH 3–11 and 0–120°C, outperforming guar gum in extreme conditions .

  2. Cost-Efficient Formulations

    • Low Dosage: 0.1–0.5% concentration achieves optimal viscosity, reducing raw material costs by 20% vs. cellulose derivatives .

    • Multi-Functional: Eliminates need for multiple additives (thickener + stabilizer), simplifying formulations.

  3. Environmental Compliance

    • Biodegradable: 80% degradation in 28 days (OECD 301B), compliant with EU Ecolabel and US EPA standards .

    • Low Toxicity: LD50 >5000 mg/kg, safe for industrial and agricultural use.

Industry-Specific Solutions

Agrochemicals

  • Suspension Concentrates: IND-HV grade stabilizes 25% thiacloprid SC, suspension rate >95% after 2 weeks at 54°C .

  • Seed Coatings: 0.3% addition improves adhesion and reduces dust-off by 40%.

Ceramics & Coatings

  • Glaze Formulations: IND-MV grade prevents pigment settling, ensuring uniform color distribution and glaze flow .

  • Textured Paints: Enhances shelf life by 6 months, preventing pigment separation and texture loss.

Industrial Cleaners

  • Acidic Toilet Cleaner: 0.5% IND-LV grade extends vertical surface contact time by 2x, improving lime scale removal .

  • Abrasive Cleaners: Suspends calcium carbonate particles, reducing sedimentation by 90%.
