ACUSOL™ 445 Polymer
ACUSOL™ 445 Polymer, a homopolymer of acrylic acid, features an optimized molecular weight tailored for diverse applications including liquid fabric wash, laundry additives, and industrial and institutional detergents. This versatile polymer offers a range of benefits such as anti-precipitation, crystal distortion, and dispersion of precipitates, enhancing cleaning efficiency and performance. Its ability to inhibit crystal growth and disperse soil particles prevents redeposition, ensuring fabrics and hard surfaces remain clean and free from stains. ACUSOL™ 445 is available in liquid form, partially neutralized as ACUSOL™ 445, fully neutralized as ACUSOL™ 445N, and spray-dried form as ACUSOL™ 445ND.
