    Formulating Tips ACULYN™ Siltouch Rheology modifier is a water phase rheology modifier for both aqueous
    formulations and emulsions. It can be added either to the oil phase or the water phase. It
    requires neither strong shear nor neutralization and thickens rapidly after addition with
    gentle mixing.

    Oil-in-water emulsions can be easily prepared incorporating ACULYN Siltouch Rheology


    Modifier into the oil phase and then combining with the water phase. The oil phase
    containing ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier can be added to the water phase (direct
    emulsification), or the water phase can be added to the oil phase (phase inversion process).
    Alternatively, ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier can be added after emulsification.
    Regardless of which technique is used, the mixer speed should be increased as the
    formulation thickens to maintain good mixing. The maximum amount of oils that can be
    incorporated without the use of any additional emulsifying aid will depend on both the
    ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier use level and the oil mix nature.

    ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier should be mixed before use.

    Mechanism of ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier is a water-in-silicone emulsion containing an acrylate-


    Action based thickening polymer in the internal phase. When blended in water, it inverts rapidly,
    allowing the polymer to bloom in the aqueous phase and thicken. In this process, the
    dimethicone oil contained in ACULYN Siltouch Rheology Modifier gets emulsified, along
    with the others oils that may be present, creating an oil-in-water system.
