use of water soluble acrylic copolymers, thickening agent, aqueous formulation and its production process, and aqueous coating formulation

摘要

use of water-soluble acrylic copolymers in possibly pigmented aqueous formulations and formulations obtained. The present invention relates to the use as a thickening agent in possibly pigmented aqueous formulations such as coating formulations such as aqueous phase inks such as dispersion inks, varnishes, paper coatings, cosmetic formulations, detergent formulations. , textile formulations and drilling muds, of a water-soluble acrylic copolymer consisting of at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer and a carboxylic function, at least one ethylenically unsaturated nonionic monomer, at least one ethylenically unsaturated oxyalkylated monomer terminated by a hydrophobic, non-aromatic branched chain of 10 to 24 carbon atoms and possibly at least one monomer with at least two ethylenic unsaturation. The invention further relates to the possibly pigmented aqueous formulations obtained.
