ROVACE™ 10 Vinyl Acrylic Emulsion is a durable, general-purpose vinyl acrylic emulsion designed for use in architectural coatings. It can be formulated over a wide range of pigment volume concentrations to provide cost effective, low odor, and improved environmental paint systems. It requires little or no coalescing solvents to form a continuous film at low temperatures. ROVACE 10 is made with no APEO containing surfactants. In addition, ROVACE 10 offers excellent processing capabilities making it easy to pump and handle during the manufacturing process.

TEGO® AddBond LP 1600 improves adhesion and flexibility of solvent borne coatings on metal and plastic. It is solvent-free and highly suitable for high-solids coating systems.

CYMEL® MB-98 resin is a butylated melamine crosslinker with high degree of alkylation and very low free formaldehyde. It has been specially designed to improve the resistance properties of urea-based acid curing wood coating formulations.

CYMEL® UM-15 resin is a highly methylated urea crosslinker supplied as a liquid at >96% solids. Its high solids combined with very fast cure makes CYMEL® UM-15 resin suitable in high solids, low temperature curing systems, like wood and paper coatings. CYMEL® UM-15 is hydrophilic in nature, completely water soluble, and has very good compatibility with water soluble anionic backbone polymers. This makes CYMEL® UM-15 resin suitable for waterborne applications, like paper and wood coatings, where speed of cure is very important.

TEGO® AddBond LTH improves adhesion of coatings on metal and plastic substrates. It does not soften the coating film and can be used for solvent borne, solvent-free, and radiation-curing coating systems.

CYMEL® 327 resin is a methylated high imino melamine crosslinker supplied in isobutanol. CYMEL® 327 resin is very reactive and has a tendency towards selfcondensation at normal baking temperatures, providing films with very good hardness, gloss, chemical resistance and outdoor durability. Its major advantage relative to other high imino resins is its potential to lower VOC in high solids formulations.

TAMOL® 1124 is a high performance hydrophilic copolymer which offers outstanding performance in a wide range of latex paint formulations from high gloss enamels to low sheen flats. Designed for excellent stability and compatibility with modern latex paint additives, TAMOL® 1124 dispersant is an excellent choice for the modern paint formulator.

RHOPLEX® VSR-50 is a 100% acrylic latex designed for premium architectural flat to gloss interior and exterior coatings. Its low coalescent demand allows the formulator to meet 50 g/L VOC regulations with some freeze-thaw capability. RHOPLEX® VSR-50 offers excellent surfactant leaching, water resistance properties, and alkali resistance. It provides proven superior exterior durability after several years of exposure over a variety of substrates such as wood, metal, and masonry for dirt pick-up resistance, efflorescence resistance, crack resistance, and tint retention. It is easy to formulate, slurry compatible, and has good block resistance.

D.E.R.® 660-B80 Epoxy Resin Solution is a semi-solid reaction product of epichlorohydrin and bisphenol-A dissolved in n-butanol. D.E.R.® 660-B80 Epoxy Resin Solution is an intermediate epoxy equivalent weight epoxy resin dissolved in butanol, and is used mainly in adhesives and protective coatings, or as a modifier for other epoxy resins to improve impact strength, extensibility, and adhesion. This epoxy resin solution can provide the high solids and chemical resistance of liquid epoxy resins combined with the adhesion, flexibility, excellent mechanical properties, and fast cure of higher molecular weight 1-type solid epoxy resin solutions. D.E.R.® 660-B80 Epoxy Resin can form the basis of many two-component coating systems with either polyamine, polyamide or polyamidoamine curing agents to provide high quality coatings which are resistant to a number of chemical reagents. D.E.R.® 660-B80 Epoxy Resin Solution is ideal for adhesives and medium to heavy duty coatings such as those used for ship hulls, marine paints, tank linings, and industrial maintenance coatings.

ROVACE™ 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is a new emulsion that offers the same performance as ROVACE 9100 Copolymer Emulsion, but is manufactured without the use of APEO surfactants. ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is a 55% solids vinyl/acrylic binder for interior flat and semigloss paints. This new generation of binder offers exceptional scrub resistance and stain removal and its consistent particle size minimizes variability in paint production. ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion is compatible with today's prevalent use of rheologymodifiers that show very good application properties, flow and leveling characteristics. In our lab testing and evaluations we have not seen any differences in formulation parameters, application properties or dry film property differences between ROVACE 9100 and ROVACE 9100AF Copolymer Emulsion.

D.E.R.® 337-X90 epoxy resin is a semi-solid reaction product of epichlorohydrin and bisphenol a dissolved in xylene.

UCECOAT® 7856 is a new high-solids and solvent-free radiation curable polyurethane dispersion in water suitable for high gloss applications with excellent clarity and distinctness of image (DOI). The product has an excellent colloidal stability (shelf life of 12 months) and complies with VOC-free, tin-free Does not contain intentionally added organic tin compounds and stenomer Chemically well-defined monomeric or multi functional acrylates, with low molecular weight and very narrow molecular weight distribution free requirements. Due to its low viscosity and its good responsiveness to rheology modifiers, it can be easily applied by spray, roller or curtain coating operation. The product can be advantageously applied in one single coat and does not require sanding, although it can still benefit from polishing. The cured coating exhibits good chemical and scratch resistance required for high-end wooden furniture topcoats, though it is also suitable for other substrates and applications.

CYMEL® 202 Resin is a methylated/n-butylated, high imino melamine crosslinker supplied in n-butanol. Its hydrophobic nature combined with high reactivity, high solids content, and rather low formaldehyde release during the curing process makes CYMEL® 202 Resin suitable for a wide range of medium to high solids or waterborne baking applications, like can and container coating formulations, automotive coatings, and low cure systems to improve film appearance and resistance properties. CYMEL® 202 resin has a high tendency to self-condense at rather low baking temperatures, providing films with very good hardness, gloss, chemical resistance, and outdoor durability.

RHOPLEX® 4400 is a 100% acrylic latex binder designed to provide wide formulation latitude for caulks and sealants. These high solids, low Tg emulsion can be formulated without plasticizer to meet the performance requirements of ASTM C920 Class 12.5 to 35 and ASTM C-834 Grade -18°. Sealants formulated with RHOPLEX® 4400 provide reduced dirt pick-up, mildew growth and paint discoloration, as well as excellent weatherability.
