MAINCOTE™ 4950 Resin is an aqueous acrylic emulsion polymer that facilitates the formulation of coatings to less than or equal to 50 g/L VOC for use in light to medium duty maintenance and protective coatings applications and general industrial metal finishing applications. It offers excellent exterior durability and corrosion resistance, and ease of formulation with excellent paint stability. MAINCOTE 4950 Resin offers improved corrosion resistance versus current direct-to-metal (DTM) finish coats formulated below 100 g/L. It also offers good architectural gloss and trim paint properties. Low coalescent demand allows compliance with stringent VOC regulations.

RHOPLEX® HG-706 is the new binder is designed for interior and exterior VOC compliant gloss and semigloss enamels, allowing formulators to produce high-performance coatings at 50 g/l VOC. RHOPLEX® HG-706 takes advantage of innovative technology to improve enamel performance over that of conventional latex polymers. The combination of an all-acrylic backbone and ambient-cure crosslinking technology provides superior performance in formulations ranging from 50 to 150 g/l VOC. Enamels based on RHOPLEX® HG-706 provide excellent adhesion, block, and stain removal.

RHOPLEX® Multilobe™ 400 Emulsion Polymer represents The Dow Chemical Company’s progress in design of an APEO (alkyl phenol ethoxylate) surfactant free binder for low-VOC exterior flat and satin paints, providing excellent durability, color retention, and dirt pick-up resistance.
