Description

Overview of TR-HM50 HM HEC
 

TR-HM50 is a nonionic, water-soluble associative polymer derived from chemically modified cellulose. It is specifically designed for use in water-based sand-textured multicolor coatings to form high-quality color droplets. Recommended dosage is 0.3%–0.9%.

Features of TR-HM50 HM HEC
 

Superior thickening: Offers enhanced thickening performance through hydrophobic association compared to conventional cellulose.
Good workability: Exhibits anti-splashing properties, film formation, water retention, and storage stability.
Easy dispersion: Does not clump in acidic or neutral water and disperses readily in organic solvents such as ethylene glycol.
High compatibility: Compatible with various synthetic polymers and emulsions.
Excellent color droplet appearance: Provides a more textured look, reducing issues such as droplet fragility and color bleeding.

Applications of TR-HM50 HM HEC
 

Primarily used in water-based sand-textured multicolor coatings to improve color droplet integrity, texture, and overall coating performance.

TR-HM50 Anti-mold Test

1. Dissolve into a 1% aqueous solution and test the initial viscosity;
2. Add a quantitative amount of enzyme solution, and measure the viscosity after 24 hours;
3. Viscosity retention percentage = Viscosity after 24 hours / Initial viscosity × 100%.

Water-based Sand-in-Water Multi-color Coating Spraying Test

Under the same formula and process conditions, the color dots of the coating with added TR-HM50 cellulose are fuller and have a stronger texture.

Water-based Sand-in-Water Multi-color Coating Viscosity Stability Test

1. Prepare the finished water-based sand-in-water multi-color coating under the same formula and process conditions;
2. Store under constant temperature and humidity conditions;
3. Record the KU viscosity after 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 days.
