Formulation Guidelines
Vesmody® A401 is a low‑viscosity liquid thickener for easy addition. Prior to addition, adjust the system pH to 8‑9, then dilute the product with water at 1:4 ratio and add slowly. Due to varying characteristics and dosages of different emulsions, the dosage of Vesmody® A401 shall be adjusted according to the target viscosity of the final product. Recommended dosage is 3‑5 % by weight of the formulation (as‑supplied basis). The exact loading shall be determined by pre‑tests before paint‑matching.
