Syntran® 4180
Syntran carpet and fabric care polymers are water-based carboxylated acrylic copolymer emulsions or solutions that can be formulated in a wide range of environmentally friendly formulations.  They will improve the performance of formulations by eliminating tacky residue, increasing cleaning efficiency, and reducing drying times.  Formulations will exhibit improved cleaning and reduced resoiling.

 





Syntran 4180 is a zinc crosslinked solution embrittling copolymer for high pH, high foam applications.

 

Syntran 4180 dramatically improves cleaning efficiency and re-soiling resistance of carpet care formulations.  Upon drying, the Syntran 4180 combines with the dirt and residual surfactants allowing easy removal when the carpet is vacuumed.  Syntran 4180 can be used effectively at a polymer to surfactant ratio of 1:1
