UHS PLUS™ Polymer is a metal-crosslinked, modified acrylic polymer specifically designed to offer exceptional ultra-highspeed (UHS) burnish response and “wet look” gloss. UHS PLUS™ Polymer-based finishes are excellent choice for a wide range of applications in retail stores and other areas where exceptional appearance is desired. ®™Trademark of The Dow Chemical Company (“Dow”) or an affiliated company of Dow UHS PLUS™ Floor Finish Polymer Page 2 of 4 © 2020–2021 The Dow Chemical Company. All rights reserved. Form No. 27-2834-01-0821 S2D Performance Characteristics As with all Dow floor polish polymers, UHS PLUS™ Polymer shares a number of common performance characteristics. UHS PLUS™ Polymer allows formulating flexibility to make a range of performance profiles from minimum maintenance to maximum burnish response. Formulations UHS-61-6 based on UHS PLUS™ Polymer meets or exceeds the industry slip resistance standard as tested by the ASTM D-2047 Standard Test Method. UHS PLUS™ Polymer offers for the manufacture of polishes that can be applied at floor temperatures of 50°F (10°C) and above. UHS PLUS™ Polymer Formulation UHS-61-5 (25%) Formulation UHS-61-5 is a 25% solids finish specifically engineered for high gloss in hightraffic locations. This formulation offers all of the benefits of dri-brite formulations, plus excellent UHS burnish response and “‘wet look’ gloss.” Material in Proper Order of Addition Percent by Weight Lb/100 U.S. Gal Gal/100 U.S. Gal Water 33.95 289.11 34.84 KATHON™ CG/ICP Preservative 0.04 0.26 0.04 Capstone FS-65 Fluorosurfactant1 0.05 0.43 0.05 CARBITOL™ Solvent - Low Gravity 5.20 42.96 5.30 DOWANOL™ DPM Glycol Ether 0.95 7.54 1.02 Benzoflex 131 Plasticizer 1.25 10.70 1.15 Tri(butoxyethyl) Phosphate Plasticizer 2.50 21.41 2.52 UHS PLUS™ Polymer (38%) 45.83 392.48 44.60 RHOPLEX™ 1531C Emulsion (38%)2 2.79 23.89 2.72 Epolene E43N Polypropylene Polymer (40%)3 3.29 28.18 3.38 A-C 325N Polypropylene Polymer (35%)4 4.13 35.37 4.26 Defoamer5 0.02 0.17 0.02 Totals 100.00 853.37 100.00 Formulation Constants Theoretical Non-volatile Solids
