Texanol ester alcohol, 2,2,4-Trimethyl-1,3-pentanediolmono

     CS-12, which is developed by Guangzhou DongHuang Chemical Technology Co, Ltd, is a coalescent solvent widely used in latex architectural trade paints. It is a slow evaporating solvent and difficult to dissolve in water. They provide many excellent properties to the coating: high scrub resistance, color development, stable property, ect. It serves as an excellent coalescing aid for emulsion polymers with good hydrolytic stability, can be used in different kinds of latex paints, such as high pH latex coatings. After adding CS-12 into latex coatings, it was adsorbed by emulsion polymers and soften them, so that it can complete the fusion process when drying the film. Because of the excellent hydrolytic stability, CS-12 won’t be absorbed with water when painted on porous material.

Product application

1) With a good hydrolytic stability, CS-12 can be used with all kinds of the emulsion, include the pure acrylic emulsion with high pH.

(2) When CS-12 is added to emulsion paint,it will be absorbed in emulsion particles to soften the particles to let them better to integrat when painting. It will not be sucked into the permeable matrix, but it can be effectively coalesced emulsion particles.

(3) CS-12 requires no special treatment in winter because of the low freezing point.

(4) CS-12 is easily to mixed with the emulsion, and will not affect the stability of the coating in high concentrations .

(5) CS-12 is a strong solvent of the emulsion polymer .
