Rheology Modifiers

Rheology modifiers are sometimes referred to as thickeners or viscosity modifiers. However, they do much more than just thicken a formulation. They add structure to the formulation, allowing it to be flowable and easily poured, yet reduce dripping and splattering. Rheology modifiers are used in nearly every industry to adjust viscosity and control non-Newtonian behaviours such as shear thinning or shear thickening. They are often used to enhance curing and prevent sedimentation in inks and paints, improve permeability and sweep efficiency of suspension drilling fluids as well as to alter the characteristics of food and pharmaceutical products. There are hundreds of rheology modifiers on the market today and choosing the right one for your formulation is crucial. Univar Solutions is committed to providing the best possible products and services to our customers, and our team of experts are always available to offer advice and support.
