INTRODUCTION
Rheological additives are essential components in paint formulations used to control the flow and viscosity of the paint. Modified rheological additives are advanced formulations of traditional rheological additives. They are designed to offer improved performance, versatility, or specific functional properties in applications like paints, coatings etc.

These additives help achieve desirable texture, stability, and application properties by influencing the fluid’s structure and behavior under different conditions
OnADD® – PLCW is a high viscosity, economical, organically modified Rheological additive for water-based system. It provides viscosity built up, good pigment suspension, excellent sag control and very good bio stability. It increases the water scrub resistance of the coating film.
APPLICATIONS
Provide better leveling, sag resistance, and color consistency in following applications
| Paints and Coatings |
| Textured coatings |
| Synthetic plaster (putty) |
| Acrylic & oil bound distemper |
ADVANTAGES
| Viscosity Control |
|---|
| Rheological additives adjust the thickness of a fluid to ensure it has the right flow characteristics for application (e.g., brushing, spraying). |
| Thixotropy (Anti-Sagging) |
|---|
| Rheological additives provides thixotropy to the paint system . This thixotropic behavior is key in water-based paints, where the viscosity decreases during application (under shear) and recovers when at rest. This prevents the paint from sagging or running after application, leading to even coverage and sharp edges in the painted surface. |
| Application Properties |
|---|
| They enhance the ease of application, prevent sagging in vertical applications, and improve leveling and surface finish. |
| Anti-Splattering |
|---|
| In paints and coatings, rheological additives help reduce splattering during roller or brush application. |
| Enhanced Storage Stability |
|---|
| Water-based paints can suffer from phase separation or settling during storage. Rheological additives help maintain long-term stability by preventing the separation of components like water, pigments, and binders, ensuring the paint remains ready for use without extensive mixing. These applications highlight the versatility and critical role of modified Rheological additives in enhancing the performance, stability, and user experience of water-based paints. |
INCORPORATION
| In Situ: |
|---|
| Add to the water rich phase as early in the manufacturing process as possible. Anionic surfactant can enhances the thickening effect when used with OnADD® – PLCW |
| Pregel: |
|---|
| Pregel can be prepared by dispensing up to 2% – 3% of OnADD® – PLCW in water under high- speed dispersion equipment with Cowles Blades. |
| Dosage : |
|---|
| Typical dosage of OnADD® – PLCW is from 0.3 to 1.5% depending upon the type of system and degree of thickening or other properties desired |

Fungal Lycopene is an acyclic carotene belonging to a large group of naturally-occurring pigments known as carotenoids. It contains at least 90% of all-trans-lycopene and minor quantities of 13-cis-lycopene and β- and γ-carotene. It is used as an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of β-carotene. Its role in the pharmaceutical and food industries stems from its demonstrated health benefits—such as anticancer and cardiovascular protection—alongside its widespread use as a natural food colorant.
Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) is a high-purity chemical compound, typically exceeding 99.8% purity, widely valued for its use as a solvent and as an additive in fuels. It finds applications in pharmaceutical manufacturing, agrochemical and polymer production, as well as a solvent in extraction and recrystallization processes.
Berberine Hydrochloride is a yellow isoquinoline alkaloid extracted from various plants such as Berberis aristata, Coptis chinensis (Chinese goldthread), and Hydrastis canadensis (goldenseal). Berberine offered by ExSyn is from Berberis aristata. It is most commonly used in its hydrochloride salt form due to its better solubility and bioavailability. It is widely known for its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and metabolic regulatory properties, and has gained popularity in nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries.
Bromobenzene-d5 is a perdeuterated form of bromobenzene(C6H5Br), meaning all five hydrogen atoms in the benzene ring are replaced with deuterium (a stable isotope of hydrogen with one proton and one neutron). It is used as a stable isotope labeled compound, primarily in electronics industry, specifically in the production of OLED displays, in research applications, particularly in NMR spectroscopy and as a raw material in organic synthesis.
2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl Methacrylate (TFEMA) is a specialty methacrylate monomer featuring a trifluoromethyl (-CF₃) group. It is a colorless, highly reactive liquid stabilized with MEHQ. This compound is widely used in the synthesis of high-performance fluorinated polymers and TFEMA a valuable component in advanced applications such as protective coatings, optical materials, adhesives, electronics, and biomedical devices.
Ginkgo Biloba 24% extract is a standardized herbal formulation derived from the leaves of the Ginkgo biloba tree, one of the oldest living tree species. The “24%” typically refers to the content of flavone glycosides, while the product may also contain 6% terpene lactones. These active constituents are responsible for its medicinal properties.
