Small additions create a clear transparent and stable solution.
Application range:
- Building material

Our standard type is PHRIKOLAT HEC 100
PHRIKOLAT HEC 100
At neutral pH and ambient temperatures PHRIKOLAT HEC 100 disperses without lump formation and provides easy dissolution. These solutions are unaffected by concentrations of soluble salts. Viscosity is little affected by mild acids and alkalies. Due to its nonionic character Phrikolat HEC 100 has wide compatibility with other materials.
