TAFIGEL PUR 61 is a so-called associative thickener, which builds up and stabilizes viscosity by forming a framework between thickener molecules, binder and pigments. Formulations with TAFIGEL PUR 61 exhibit maximum pseudoplasticity. Viscosity is increased primarily in the low shear rate range, but without generating an elastic component that worsens the flow. The low viscosity in the high shear range resulting from the thickener results in excellent sprayability of the coating systems. TAFIGEL PUR 61 can be used alone or in combination with other TAFIGEL thickeners or with cellulose or acrylate thickeners. TAFIGEL® PUR 61 has been optimized for easy handling and easy incorporation. In many cases, the thickener can also easily be used in post-dosing.
