ACRYSOL™ DR-73 Rheology Modifier is a synthetic liquid thickener that provides a cost-effective, high-performance alternative to cellulosic thickeners in interior flat latex paints. ACRYSOL™ DR-73 offers application and feel properties similar to medium-grade cellulosic thickeners and hydrophobically modified HEC thickeners, while increasing high shear viscosity for enhanced film build, brush drag, and hiding power. It also delivers outstanding spatter resistance. ACRYSOL™ DR-73 is easy to handle and incorporate into paint formulations, and it is designed to resist microbial contamination.

SURFYNOL® DF 58 is an effectivede foamer concentrate based on polyether siloxane technology. Excellent foam knockdown.

TEGO® DISPers 650 is a non-ionic wetting and dispersing additive that can be used in waterborne and solventborne formulations and in universal colorants. Especially for organic pigments;providesexcellent color strength development.

TEGO® Wet KL 245 is a highly active siloxane-based substrate wetting additive. It shows very good substrate wetting properties on difficult substrates like wood and plastic. It is highly compatible and recommended for water borne and solvent borne coatings.

CRAYVALLAC® WN-1135 is a micronised modified polypropylene wax.

Protectosil® 100 N is a free-flowing, colorless, solvent-free liquid water repellent based on a monomeric silane, specially intended for the external waterproofing of mineral building materials. Protectosil® 100 N may be used as a concentrate to manufacture diluted products and formulations.

RHOPLEX® AC-2508 is designed for exterior semigloss house and trim paints. It is closely related to RHOPLEX® AC-507 and RHOPLEX® AC-2507 Acrylic Binders, but with a slightly harder polymer composition for a bit better resistance to dirt pickup and blocking. Also, the product provides more "robust" wet adhesion, in that there is less drop-off in adhesion when formulated with polyacid dispersants, and anionic rheology modifiers. Coalescent demand of RHOPLEX® AC-2508 in most formulations is 10% Texanol ester alcohol by weight of binder solids.

RHOPLEX® SG-10AF is a versatile 100% copolymer that was designed for use in high-quality interior/exterior semigloss paints. RHOPLEX® SG-10AF provides paint formulators with an opportunity to achieve excellent early and ultimate block resistance, and very good flow and leveling. RHOPLEX® SG-10AF establishes a new level of performance for aqueous semigloss applications.

SURFYNOL® 485 W is a low-viscosity substrate wetting agent for water borne coatings and inks with high solubility in aqueous systems. SURFYNOL® 485 W can also be used for its stabilization and emulsification properties

Dynasylan® IBTMO, an alkyltrialkoxysilane is an important surface modifier and component in sol­gel systems. Dynasylan® IBTMO, an alkyltrialkoxysilane is an important surface modifier and component in sol­gel systems. Dynasylan® IBTMO, an alkyltrialkoxysilane is an important surface modifier and component in sol­gel systems. Dynasylan® IBTMO is a colorless, low­viscosity liquid. Dynasylan® IBTMO is regarded as trifunctional since all three alkoxy groups are able to hydrolyze. Additionally Dynasylan® IBTMO contains an isobutyl group that adds organic character to the products. Hydrolysis leads to silanol groups which, in a subsequent condensation reaction, form very stable siloxane bonds (­Si­O­Si­). Condensation occurs parallel to hydrolysis once a certain amount of silanol groups have been formed. The absolute and relative rates of hydrolysis and condensation depend on a number of factors. The most important factors include pH, concentration, solvent, temperature and the catalyst.

RHOPLEX® HG-700 is an aqueous, 100% acrylic polymer designed for interior and exterior, VOC compliant, gloss and semigloss enamels. This binder uses ambient temperature self-crosslinking technology to offer improved enamel performance versus conventional latex polymers. The combination of an all-acrylic backbone and ambient cure crosslinking technology offers excellent performance in gloss and semi-gloss formulations at VOC levels under 150 g/L. Gloss enamels based on RHOPLEX® HG-700 offer durable coatings with excellent adhesion, block resistance, and stain removal. Suitable applications include factory applied topcoats for wood and wood composite materials such as joinery and siding products.
