Rheovis® FRC
and Rheovis® CDE
Excellent Rheology Control and long-term Stability for
Fabric Softeners
Rheovis® FRC and Rheovis® CDE are highly
effective rheology modifiers and stabilizers
especially suited for Fabric Softeners.
Both cationic acrylic polymers are based on the
liquid dispersion polymer (LDP) technology. The
products are acrylamide-free polymers dispersed in
biodegradable esters.
With these two polymers together with the
esterquats we can formulate both regular and
concentrated softeners with a higher long-term
stability and a more creamy appearance.

The concentrated version (55% active) provides a The diluted version (50% active) enables to achieve
more stable product with a longer shelf life. an easy handling.
