Vinyl acetate ethylene interior semi-matt white paint - PVC 38% - Mowilith* LDM 1871

This formulation is suitable for both interior and exterior applications, providing a semi-matte finish. It incorporates Natrosol™ Plus 330 hydrophobically modified hydroxyethylcellulose (HM-HEC) as a rheology modifier and Aquaflow™ NMS-450E as a non-ionic synthetic associative thickener (NSAT) to enhance its rheological properties. The PVC is set at 38% using Mowilith* LDM 1871, a vinyl acetate ethylene interior semi-matte white paint.

Components and Their Functions:

• Water: Primary vehicle for dispersion and application.
• Rheology Modifier (HM-HEC Natrosol™ Plus 330): Adjusts viscosity and provides thickening properties.
• Dispersing Agents (Sodium Polyphosphate Calgon N and Ammonium Polyacrylate Dispex CX 4240):** Ensure proper dispersion of pigments and fillers.
• Preservative (Biocide Nuosept BIC):* Maintains paint integrity by preventing microbial growth.
• Foam Control Agent (Mineral Oil Drewplus™ L-1513): Prevents foam formation during mixing and application.
• Neutralizing Agent (Alkaline pHLEX™ 400): Adjusts pH for stability and performance.
• Pigment (Titanium Dioxide Tioxide R-HD2):* Provides opacity and color.
• Extender (Calcium Carbonate Omyacarb CL Extra):* Increases volume and improves hiding power.

Let Down:

• Surfactant (Phosphate Co-ester Strodex™ PK-85NV): Enhances wetting and dispersion of pigments.
• Additional Foam Control Agent (Mineral Oil Drewplus™ L-1513): Ensures foam control during application.
• Binder (Vinyl Acetate Ethylene Latex Mowilith LDM 1871):* Forms a durable film upon drying, providing adhesion and protection.
• Rheology Modifier (NSAT Aquaflow™ NMS-450E): Further adjusts viscosity and provides rheological control.
• Water: Adjusts viscosity and consistency.
