ACULYNTM 88 Rheology Modifier is an anionic hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble acrylic polymer emulsion (HASE) that is lightly crosslinked with unusually high aqueous thickening and stabilizing efficiency. This thickener is a liquid, cold-processable product that instantaneously thickens upon neutralization providing ease of handling and increased manufacturing efficiency. ACULYN 88 is offered at 29% solids and is compatible with high levels of surfactants. The polymer has a well-established toxicological profile and is safe in normal use. This product is bioeliminable, and is expected to degrade only slowly in the environment
