Rhodafac® RS610

Rhodafac® RS610 by Syensqo is a anionic, phosphate ester-based dispersing agent. It outperforms sulfates in emulsion polymerization yielding binders with outstanding scrub resistance, improved gloss and water resistance. In this example, an acrylic binder was prepared with Rhodafac® RS610-a phosphate ester emulsifier-and compared with the same binder prepared with a standard sulfate emulsifier. The resulting binders were bench marked for stability and properties in architectural coatings along with a commercial acrylic binder. It is used in interior and exterior decorative paints.
