Effective May 30, 2008, LyondellBasell's Ethacryl® polymer dispersant business has been acquired by Coatex, a subsidiary of the Arkema Group. During this transition, you may contact Coatex at www.coatex.fr or your Lyondell sales representative will be happy to assist you.
Ethacryl dispersants are a growing family of comb-branched copolymer dispersants that can enhance the properties of many products and applications. These water-soluble, polycarboxylate copolymers are designed with unique pendant groups that give them their comb-branched structure and excellent stabilization properties.
High performance dispersants for gypsum that provide a higher flow than typically obtainable with conventional dispersants, while reducing water demand.
Can improve workability and reduce water content and segregation of concrete/cement versus traditional dispersants.
High-performance aqueous dispersants designed for use in gypsum-based applications requiring a faster set and hydration than that obtained by using Ethacryl G dispersants.
High performance aqueous pigment dispersants developed to facilitate efficient milling of pigments to submicron size for improved color development and gloss, while providing pigment dispersions with low viscosity and high pigment solids.
