Acriflow 141-S Acid is an aqueous solution of a polyacrylic acid of medium molecular weight. It is used as a dispersant, anti-scalent and suspending agent in industrial processes and applications when low pH is required. These include:

  • mining and mineral handling (china clay, metal ores)
  • inorganic pigment dispersions
  • paper making
  • textile processing
  • paint manufacture
  • boiler water treatment
