11 DSX 3801 and Rheovis 162 Performance Highlights DSX 3801 New HEUR based rheology modifier Well-balanced mid-shear thickener with improved ICI build at low dosage Improved viscosity drop on tinting Easy handling due to low product viscosity Good scrub and chemical resistance Universality (architectural & industrial applications) Rheovis 162 Novel HASE thickener Outstanding efficiency Less water uptake High yield point Thixotropic flow behavior Excellent sag resistance Excellent balance between sag resistance and leveling For non-dripping paints & stains For spray application 11

12 DSX 3801 and Rheovis 162 Novel Associative Rheology Modifiers Associative thickeners form a so called dynamic physical network between pigments, latices, surfactant micelles and other components of the paint - resulting in the thickening effect. 12

13 DSX 3801 Matt facade paint based on Acronal S 790 Low shear viscosity and high shear viscosity vs. dosage of rheology modifier Dosage (as-is on paint) adjusted to achieve ~ mpa.s low shear viscosity Low shear viscosity [mpa.s] Dosage: 1.0% 1.0% 1.43% 0 DSX 3801 Benchmark 1 Benchmark 2 Low shear viscosity (1 1/s) ICI viscosity ( /s) ICI viscosity [mpa.s] DSX 3801 shows improved ICI viscosity than Benchmarks at equal or lower dosage. 13

14 DSX 3801 High gloss paint based on acrylic emulsion Low shear viscosity and high shear viscosity vs. dosage of rheology modifier Dosage (as-is on paint) adjusted to achieve ~ 2000 mpa s low shear viscosity Low shear viscosity [mpa.s] Dosage: 1.06% 1.22% 2.78% ICI viscosity [mpa.s] 0 DSX 3801 Benchmark 1 Benchmark 2 Low shear viscosity (1 1/s) ICI viscosity ( /s) DSX 3801 shows similar performance to solvent containing Benchmark 1 at 13% lower dosage. To reach the same level of low shear viscosity, more than double amount of Benchmark 2 is needed
