PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF A RHEOLOGY MODIFIER CONTAINING COMPOSITION

摘要

A process for the production of a rheology modifier containing composition comprising the steps of: providing a rheology modifier, wherein said rheology modifier is selected from the group consisting of a water swellable polymer, a non-water soluble crystalline polymer, and mixtures thereof; providing a substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier; and dispersing said rheology modifier in said substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier to generate a slurry having a viscosity of less than 2000 mPas at 0.1 s−1 and 20° C. when measured using an AR 1000 rheometer.

1. A process for the production of a rheology modifier containing composition comprising the steps of:
(a) first, providing a rheology modifier, wherein said rheology modifier is selected from the group consisting of a water swellable polymer, a non-water soluble crystalline polymer, and mixtures thereof; (b) providing a substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier; and (c) second, dispersing said rheology modifier into said substantially anhydrous water-miscible liquid carrier to generate a slurry having a viscosity of less than 2000 mPas at 0.1 s−1 and 20° C. when measured using an AR 1000 rheometer prior to any mixing with water.
