Anionic Polyacrylamide

High-molecular-weight polymeric flocculant with an anionic charge, used as a coagulation aid in solid-liquid separation. It accelerates floc sedimentation and improves the clarity of treated water in combination with inorganic coagulants. Grade selection is carried out through testing according to the type of solid to be removed.

Rheology modifier

Cationic Polyacrylamide

Polymeric flocculant with a cationic charge, especially used in the conditioning and dewatering of organic sludge. It neutralizes the surface charges of biological solids and facilitates the formation of flocs resistant to mechanical shear in filter presses, centrifuges, and belt presses. It is dosed as a diluted solution prepared on site.

Hydroxyethyl Cellulose

Hydroxyethylcellulose

Water-soluble nonionic cellulosic thickener, standard in water-based architectural paints for viscosity control, water retention and storage stability. It provides good leveling and spatter resistance during application. It is also used as a rheology modifier in cleaning gels, personal care products and topical veterinary products.

Rheology modifier

Technical Grade Talc

Talc

Micronized hydrated magnesium silicate mineral with a lamellar structure, providing lubricity, moisture absorption and opacity. It is used as a filler and extender in paints, plastics and household care products, and as a diluent in powders, depending on the grade and the manufacturer's documentation.
