THIXATROL® 5050W is a modified EVA copolymer emulsion for enhancing orientation of metallic & pearlescent pigments in coating films through particle’s steric hindrance mechanism. It is suitable for the majority of water borne metallic paint systems.
RHEOLATE® HX 6025 has shown more efficient high shear viscosity development and improved flow and leveling across all sheen levels in the newer VOC free premium as well as in conventional coatings than most other viscosity modifiers. I t provides excellent stain resistance properties and applied hide to products formulated with it.
Highly efficient viscosity builder in the low- to mid-shear rate range. It provides strongly shear thinning flow behaviour which makes it ideal for spray applications including sprayed latex emulsions, dispersions, water reducible clear-coats and high gloss pigmented systems.
NUOSPERSE® FX 7500W is a wetting and dispersing agent, with very low VOC and designed for water-borne coatings and inks. It offers efficient viscosity reduction in grinding mill base, and also enhances color intensity of organic and inorganic pigments.
NALZIN® FA 180 is a corrosion inhibitor for aqueous paint systems to counteract the formation of flash rust. The product is also recommended as an in can corrosion inhibitor . When e mulsi fied in water NALZIN FA 180 may be used as a tempo rary rust inhibitor
Hypomer MT 2550K is a hydroxyl acrylic resin that gives exce llent matting effect yet better clarity and transparency than conventional 2K PU coatings formulated with matting agents e.g. silica.
BENTONE SD® -2 is easy to incorporate and can be added dry to the pigment grinding process without requiring the use of a chemical activator or the preparation of a pregel. It may be used for post correction.
THIXATROL® PM 8058 provides high viscosity, thixotropy and thick layer sag control in high build systems that contain polar solvents.
