Applications

In aqueous systems, such as boiler feed water and recirculated cooling water, dissolved salts and solid particles are present, which can form harmful scale deposits on equipment surfaces.

Prevention of these deposits is essential for efficient equipment operation. Scale inhibition can be accomplished effectively with the use of synthetic polymers. Highly carboxyl-functional polymers JSTAMOL-960 scale inhibitors can be used in various aqueous systems over a wide temperature

Very good thermal stability. Nondiscoloring dispersing agent for preparing high solids dispersions.

When used in emulsions, this product is a very effective post-emulsion stabilizer. This product also helps to retard the separation of resin/rosin emulsions.

Highly effective dispersing agent for prevention of agglomeration or coalescence of suspended solids, liquids or gases in aqueous systems. Used to prevent settling, to lower the viscosity of pigment slurries, to improve stability of emulsions.

Good general purpose dispersant for a variety of mineral pigments. Helps maintain coating viscosity at both ambient and elevated temperatures.
