Ethyl acrylate-methacrylic acid-polyethylene glycol stearyl ether methacrylate copolymer

An associative acrylic copolymer (CAS 75760-37-1) designed to control flow behaviour and stabilise emulsions in aqueous formulation systems.

Where is Ethyl acrylate-methacrylic acid-polyethylene glycol stearyl ether methacrylate copolymer used?

• Personal care: thickens and stabilises lotions, creams and leave-on treatments
• Architectural and industrial coatings: prevents sagging and improves leveling in waterborne paint systems
• Household and institutional cleaning: suspends actives and particulates, maintaining homogeneity through storage and use
• Adhesives and sealants: adjusts open time and application rheology in water-based systems
• Its hydrophobically modified backbone builds viscosity and structure in water-based systems without high polymer loading.

Good to know: Both neutralised and unneutralised forms exist; rheological response is activated upon pH adjustment in formulation.
