Coscat® 83 is an organobismuth compound that was specifically developed as a catalyst for two component, polyurethane systems. For soft to medium hardness systems the addition of a zinc catalyst can reduce a potential lag in final cure, yielding a stronger final cure typical of a mercury-based catalyst.

EBECRYL® P104 is an acrylated amine used as a hydrogen donor, or photoactivator, in ultraviolet light (UV) curable coatings and inks. When used in formulations in combination with a photosensitizer (e.g. benzophenone), EBECRYL P104 provides rapid UV cure response in air by mitigating the effects of oxygen inhibition at the coating or ink surface. Recommended levels are from 5 to 15% based on total formulation, usually combined with 3-5% photosensitizer. EBECRYL P104 can be used with EBECRYL P39 (a polymeric benzophenone derivative) for formulations requiring low residual odor.

CYCAT® 4045 CATALYST is an amine blocked para-toluene sulfonic acid catalyst. It is recommended for accelerating the cure response of amino crosslinking resins while providing improved formulation package stability compared with the un-blocked para-toluene sulfonic acid CYCAT® 4045 CATALYST It is especially recommended for use with highly alkylated amino crosslinking resins. It provides excellent stability in high solids and waterborne systems, and in the latter it can be added without causing binder precipitation, which can often occur due to a drop in pH.

SILCOLEASE™ PC-94 is an emulsion of Dioctyl Tin Dilaurate. This is the catalyst component of a silicone release formulation and promotes polymerization through a polycondensation reaction.

Cotin® 200 is a dibutyltin dilaurate, a liquid organotin catalyst recommended for the manufacture of silicone and polyurethane systems. It can be used in these primary reactions as well as secondary types such as allophanate and biuret formation.

CYCAT® 296-9 is an unique acid catalyst developed to accelerate the cure of Cymel amino resins at normal baking temperatures, and to permit the cure of clear finishes and enamels within relatively low temperature ranges.

ADDITOL® DX is a eutectic liquid photoinitiator vehicle designed to simplify and shorten the process of formulating ultraviolet (UV) cured flexographic, lithographic, and screen printing inks. ADDITOL® DX provides surface and in-depth cure to dark colored UV inks and is compatible with common UV monomer, oligomer, and vehicle choices.
