Products

AEROSIL® E 805 is a fumed silica after-treated with an organosilane. It provides extraordinary rheological properties by maintaining brilliant transparency. It is very easy to disperse.

AEROSIL® R 972 W Coating is a fumed silica aftertreated with DDS (Dimethyldichlorosilane). The product thickening efficiency of AEROSIL® R 972 W Coating ex RHE is consistent with the Waterford-produced AEROSIL® R 972. This profile is dif- ferent than the thickening profile of standard RHE quality.

ACEMATT® TS 100 is an untreated thermal silica with outstanding properties. It provides very high efficiency and transparency. It can be used in a large variety of coatings.

AIRASE® 5700 is a very compatible defoamer concentrate based on polyether siloxane technology. Contains fumed silica.

Dynasylan® VTMO is a bifunctional organosilane possessing a reactive vinyl group and a hydrolyzable inorganic trimethoxysilyl group. The dual nature of its reactivity allows Dynasylan® VTMO to bind chemically to both inorganic materials (e.g. glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers), thus functioning as a crosslinking agent, adhesion promoter and/or surface modifier. Dynasylan® VTMO is a colorless, low-viscosity liquid with a typical aromatic odor.

TEGO® Wet 236 is a siloxane-based superwetter providing exceptional substrate wetting and good flow and leveling in waterbornecoatings and inks.

TEGO® Rad 2300 is an efficient non-foaming, radically cross-linkable substrate wetting and slip additive. Recommended even for high shear applications and the wetting of low energy substrates including fresh litho inks.

TEGO® Foamex 825 is a compatible defoamer emulsion based on polyether siloxane technology. Good balance of effectiveness and compatibility.

TEGO® AIREX 991 shows very strong defoaming against both macro- and micro foam in solvent borne and high solids coatings. Especially for spray-applied coatings.

TEGO® AddBond LTW-B improves adhesion and flexibility of solvent borne coatings on steel, galvanized steel, aluminum, and plastics.

SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant is a 100% active multifunctional surface active agent. Due to its volatile nature, SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant can evaporate from a system under use conditions and/or heating. Therefore, SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant is useful in applications where residual surface activity or contamination is undesirable, such as silicon wafer and glass cleaning. SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant can provide excellent wetting of polyethylene and polypropylene films. Upon evaporation, little to no surfactant remains to interfere with trapping or cause water sensitivity in printing inks. During the curing of silicones by the silane/alkene addition reaction, SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant can “block” platinum catalysts through complexation; this effect can be used to delay the curing reaction. However, the SURFYNOL® 61 surfactant typically flashes off upon heating to liberate the active catalyst and trigger the reaction.

ACEMATT® 790 is an untreated, medium particle sized precipitated silica. It is especially recommended for coil coatings, as well as general industrial coatings.

Dynasylan® PTMO an alkyltrialkoxysilane is important component in sol­gel systems. Dynasylan® PTMO is a colorless, low­viscosity liquid. Dynasylan® PTMO is regarded as trifunctional since all three alkoxy groups can hydrolyze. Dynasylan® PTMO also contains a propyl group that adds hydrophobic character to sol­gel coatings. 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.

TEGO® Phobe 1500 N is a functional polysiloxane formulation for the hydrophobization of coating formulations. It generates an extreme water-beading effect.
