Overview

In water-based acrylic emulsions, water-based coatings, and adhesive systems, dispersion stability, scrub resistance, adhesion, and corrosion resistance often have a direct impact on the application performance and long-term durability of the final product.

In particular, when used on inorganic substrates, metal surfaces, cement-based materials, glass, ceramics, and other demanding substrates, conventional emulsion systems may face problems such as insufficient adhesion, poor dispersion stability, and inadequate film durability.

What Is Rhenafac CS-1010?

Rhenafac CS-1010 is a phosphate ester functional monomer designed for water-based emulsion polymerization systems. It can readily participate in polymerization and become incorporated into the molecular structure of water-based emulsions.

It is used to help improve the dispersion stability, scrub resistance, and adhesion to inorganic substrates of water-based acrylic coatings, adhesives, and related water-based systems.

Unlike post-added additives, Rhenafac CS-1010 can act as a functional comonomer in emulsion polymerization. This allows functional groups to be more stably introduced into the polymer system, helping downstream customers improve formulation stability and the overall performance of the film after formation.

Applicable Industries and Application Areas

1. Water-Based Acrylic Emulsions

Rhenafac CS-1010 is suitable for architectural coatings, industrial coatings, primer emulsions, functional water-based resins, and related systems.

By introducing a phosphate ester functional monomer, it can help improve the dispersion stability of emulsion particles and enhance the bonding strength between the polymer and inorganic substrates. This helps reduce the risk of sedimentation, flocculation, delamination, and other issues caused by system instability.

2. Water-Based Architectural Coatings

Rhenafac CS-1010 is suitable for interior and exterior wall coatings, scrub-resistant coatings, metal protective coatings, water-based primers, and similar products.

For formulations that require better adhesion, scrub resistance, and substrate adaptability, Rhenafac CS-1010 can be used as a functional modification monomer. It helps improve the scrub resistance of the coating film, allowing the coating to maintain better integrity during daily cleaning and friction.

3. Water-Based Adhesives

In water-based pressure-sensitive adhesives, construction adhesives, packaging adhesives, laminating adhesives, and other adhesive systems, Rhenafac CS-1010 can help improve dispersion stability and enhance the bonding performance of the adhesive layer on inorganic or polar substrates.

4. Metal Coatings

The phosphate ester structure has good affinity with metal and inorganic surfaces. Therefore, Rhenafac CS-1010 can be used in water-based metal coatings, metal primers, and protective coating systems that require improved adhesion and corrosion resistance.

It helps improve the bonding performance between the coating film and the substrate, reducing problems such as peeling and delamination caused by insufficient adhesion.
