ENCOR® 2138
Product overview
ENCOR® 2138 is a pure-acrylic emulsion formulated with no alkylphenolethoxylates, ammonia, solvent nor formaldehyde.
Based on ARKEMA's new technology for the development of high binding binders, ENCOR® 2138 is designed to be used in the formulations of low VOC plasters; interior paints exhibiting excellent wet scrub resistance; it is also perfectly adapted to exterior wall paints.
Thanks to its very high binding power, ENCOR® 2138 allows to increase the PVC of the paint without compromising its wet scrub resistance.
Its specific structure is known to limit the migration of surfactants and other leaching species, limiting "snail effect". Its low Minimum Film Formation Temperature allows the formulation of solvent-free and also coalescent-free paints. Applied at low temperature without any coalescing agent, high PVC paints based on ENCOR® 2138 keep their good wet scrub resistance.
