FR-850
FR850 is an aqueous Styrene Acrylate copolymer emulsion which can be used to produce coatings, textured finishes and surfacing compounds. FR850 has excellent Thermal and Mechanical stability.
KEY FEATURES
- Free from plasticizer
- Good filler acceptance
- Excellent water resistance
- Excellent aging resistance
TYPICAL APPLICATION
FR850 is used for producing flat coating applications on plasters, masonry, fibrous cement concrete etc. FR850 has good Pigmentability due to which it is ideally suited for Masonry Paints & Texture coating with high performance and least formulation cost

RECOMMENDED APPLICATION GUIDLINES
Coatings are generally made with high speed mixers by dispersing first fillers, pigments, wetting agents and auxiliaries. FR850 is added at the last let down stage.
- To achieve film formation at lower temperature adequate quantity of coalescing solvents are to be incorporated.
- For higher viscosity, thickeners are recommended to be added
- Suitable defoamer in required quantity is to be added to take care of foam during processing.
- Biocides need to be included in the formulation to guard against micro-organism growth.
COMPATIBILITY WITH (POLYMER EMULSION)
FR850 is miscible with non-ionic & anionic emulsions However, there is a chance that such mixing may affect the property of FR850.
FILLERS
FR850 has good compatibility with calcium carbonate, Dolomite, silica flour, fine sand etc. Also the pigment compatibility is good and can be further increased by incorporating suitable dispersing agent.
