I-thickener yokuphrinta iwuhlobo lwesithasiselo samakhemikhali esisetshenziswa kakhulu embonini yokunyathelisa.Iglue nokunamathisela kombala kuzosetshenziswa ekunyatheliseni imboni yendwangu.Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ngenxa yokuthi amandla aphezulu okugunda ngesikhathi sokucubungula azonciphisa ukuhambisana, i-thickener izosetshenziselwa ukwandisa ukuhambisana kwezinto zokunyathelisa.Ngalesi sikhathi, kuzosetshenziswa i-printing thickener.
Ama-thickeners okuphrinta ahlukaniswe ikakhulukazi izigaba ezimbili, okuyi-non-ionic ne-anionic.Ama-molecule ikakhulukazi ama-polyethylene glycol ethers.Ama-Anions ikakhulukazi ama-polymer electrolyte compounds.Ama-thickeners okuphrinta asetshenziswa kakhulu ekuphrinteni kwendwangu kanye nokudaya, okokugqoka, uyinki nezinye izimboni.
