Products

RHOPLEX® SP-100 is a binder and resin used in architectural coatings, automotive OEM coatings, automotive and transportation, industrial applications, and paints and coatings. It functions as a binder.

ACRYSOL™ ASE-60 Alkali Soluble Anionic Thickener is an acid containing, acrylic emulsion copolymer. As such, when the emulsion is diluted with water and neutralized with a base, the polymer becomes soluble. Under these conditions, the emulsion clarifies and becomes highly viscous. ACRYSOL™ ASE-60 Thickener is effective at increasing low shear rate (Brookfield) viscosity, resulting in coatings that have highly shear thinning characteristics.

UCECOAT® 7710 is a solvent free, energy curable polyurethane dispersion specifically developed for high gloss applications on wood and plastics. It exhibits high hardness and scratch resistance. UCECOAT® 7710 is not physically drying before UV curing.

EBECRYL® 8702 is an aliphatic urethane hexaacrylate that offers a multitude of performance properties allowing the formulator the flexibility to meet requirements. Films using EBECRYL® 8702 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit a combination of hardness, abrasion and impact resistance coupled with good exterior durability.

ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier is a nonionic urethane rheology modifier, designed for formulating interior/exterior paints ranging from highly structured to paints that portray nearly Newtonian behavior. ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier rheology modifier shows a very good balance of flow and high shear viscosity. The nature of this balance is dependent on formulations and latex types. This allows the formulation of paints meeting a variety of rheological requirements. ACRYSOL™ RM-825 Rheology Modifier can be used as a co-thickener in many types of formulations for attaining a desired balance of low and high shear viscosities. It has excellent water and alkali resistance.

RHOPLEX® 2601 is a versatile binder designed for interior and exterior coatings and can be formulated across a broad PVC range. For exterior durability, higher coalescent levels may be needed to ensure good film formation in higher PVC paints. While RHOPLEX® 2601 is a harder latex binder, it should be noted that it is possible to develop low VOC paints with the use of low VOC coalescents (i.e. DOWANOL™ LoV 485 Glycol Ether, Optifilm 400, etc.).

ACRYSOL™ I-62A Emulsion is an aqueous alkali-soluble acrylic copolymer which has broad utility as a dispersant for organic and inorganic pigments. As a pigment dispersant, it offers excellent dispersion for whites and a variety of deep-tone formulations. It is especially useful in formulations designed for thermosetting applications. It is a waterborne colloidal dispersion containing both carboxylic acid and hydroxyl functionality, and as such will crosslink with melamine-formaldehyde or urea-formaldehyde resins, thereby becoming part of the polymer matrix and improving the film properties.

ACRYSOL™ WS-24 is a dispersant composed of a chemical mixture.

EBECRYL® CTFA is a mono-functional monomer with low viscosity, good hardness and good hard solvent resistance. It can provide fast curing speed and good film performance.

RHOPLEX® TR-934HS is an excellent all-purpose binder for applications requiring soft, flexible, and durable properties.

RHOPLEX® AC-2829 is a binder and resin used in architectural coatings, automotive OEM coatings, automotive and transportation, industrial applications, paints and coatings, and textile manufacturing. It functions as a binder in industrial additives.

CRAYVALLAC® PA3 X 20 is used in solventborne coatings, top coats, varnishes, and wood coatings. It is compatible with acrylics, alkyds, nitrocellulose, and polyurethanes (PU) and is suitable for wood substrates.

RHOPLEX® WL-100 is an acrylic-styrene copolymer designed for high-gloss, high-DOI (Distinctness of Image) waterborne plastic coatings where an attractive appearance and excellent dry and wet adhesion are important considerations. The favorable colloidal stability (robustness) of RHOPLEX® WL-100 accommodates a broad range of formulation types and formulation process techniques, providing the formulator with a versatile binder for a variety of applications. Robustness, along with 50% weight solids, allows the formulator to achieve volume solids above conventional waterborne binders.

RHOPLEX® R-253 is designed for use as an aqueous release coating, particularly for masking tapes. Coated directly over creped or flat saturated tape stocks or base coated saturated tape stock, RHOPLEX® R-253 offers a release surface for a typical masking tape adhesive. These release properties are retained over extended storage periods as indicated by accelerated high temperature/high humidity aging tests.

ACRYSOL™ RM-6000 Rheology Modifier is a nonionic urethane rheology modifier based on solvent-free1 technology offering improved efficiency without sacrificing key performance properties. The efficiency in both the medium shear and high shear range results in good flow and leveling with high film build while maintaining good sag resistance. ACRYSOL™ RM-6000 Rheology Modifier has demonstrated utility in a broad range of emulsions, including the “newer generation”, low-VOC types such as RHOPLEX™ SG-30 Acrylic Emulsion and RHOPLEX™ ML-300 Acrylic Emulsion.
