A perspective on the history of and current research in surfactant-modified, water-soluble polymers

  • Review
  • Published:
Journal of Coatings Technology

Abstract

In this review of surfactant-modified, water-soluble polymers, a definition of terms and their historical development is given for each associative polymer type. Studies that have contributed to a fundamental understanding of the structural influences of these associative polymers on the solution behavior of such thickeners are reviewed critically avoiding the sales approach and over exuberance exhibited in so many publications in this area of coatings science.
