Products

CRAYVALLAC® MT is used in solventborne coatings, as well as solventless and high solids coatings. It features anti-settling, high thixotropy, recoatability, and sag resistance. The product functions as a rheology modifier in CASE ingredients.

CRAYVALLAC® SUPER is a high performance, micronised amide wax rheology modifier suitable for a wide range of solvent-based, high-solids and solvent-free applications. CRAYVALLAC® SUPER overcomes those difficulties which exist with hydrogenated castor oil based rheology modifiers e.g. seeding and false-body. Consequently, coatings formulated using CRAYVALLAC® SUPER exhibit an enhanced performance such as controlled flow behavior, ease of application and excellent sag resistanceIts smooth viscosity recovery will help to achieve high film thickness without compromising a good levelling.

DRY #1 Castor Oil is a Technical Grade pure castor oil having a very low moisture content at 0.02% maximum. Also known as ricinus oil, it is a triglyceride of fatty acids which occurs in the seed of the castor plant, Ricinus communis. The low moisture content makes this product ideal for lubricant or polyurethane applications where low moisture is required.

DB™ Oil is the highest grade of refined castor oil. It was developed for use in applications when a low acidity and moisture content are critical.

Castorwax® DS-270 is a wax-like compound obtained by the controlled hydrogenation of pure castor oil, which occurs in the seed of the castor plant, Ricinus communis. Castorwax® DS-270 is highly compatible with a variety of plastics and resin systems and has limited solubility in organic solvents, which will reduce additive an integral part of the cured film. the possibility of its being washed or leached out of the final product Castorwax® DS-270 also has an available reactive hydroxyl group which, if desired, can be utilized to react into the cured film making the additive an integral part of the cured film.

Caspol™ 5003 is a 100% solids castor oil based reactive diluent with a linear chain backbone having a low viscosity, good compatibility and wetting. Caspol™ 5003, a linear chain diol, is composed of a blend of primary and secondary hydroxyls which makes this polyol more reactive yielding slightly harder and less flexible components than either Caspol™ 5001 or DBTM Oil.

Caspol™ 5001 is a 100% solids castor oil based reactive diluent with a linear chain backbone having low viscosity, good compatibility and wetting. This polyol is the lowest molecular weight diol of the Caspol series. Caspol™ 5001 has a very low viscosity and produces higher strength, elongation and flexibility than DBTM Oil.

Vorite® 125 has been polymerized by a unique process, which imparts excellent thermal and viscosity stability. The Vorite® oils are polymeric plasticizers for cellulosics and elastomers in adhesives, sealants, gasket cements and belt dressings. They aid in plasticizing the reactants (polyol) for flexible urethane foams and elastomers. Other uses include lacquers, marking inks and plug valve lubricants.

Castorcin™ 320 is a 100% solids, castor oil based reactive diluent that is a blend of primary and secondary hydroxyls with a low molecular weight, which gives this multi-functional polyol a high level of reactivity with high hardness and strength.

Vorite® 105 has been polymerized by a unique process, which imparts excellent thermal and viscosity stability. They function as polymeric plasticizers for elastomers in adhesive and sealant applications.

CRAYVALLAC® PF is a modified micronised hydrogenated castor oil rheology modifier specially designed to facilitate the incorporation in powder form for betteractivation and easier handling. The activation process is the conversion of the CRAYVALLAC® PF fine particles to an interacting network of fibers. It is this network that gives rise to the final system’s shear thinning rheology. This shear-thinning behavior provides a very high viscosity under the low shear rates associated with sedimentation, and a low viscosity at the much higher application shear rates. The net result is excellent control of sedimentation combined with ease of application. CRAYVALLAC® PF is suitable for a multitude of applications.

Castorwax® is a wax like compound obtained by the controlled hydrogenation of pure castor oil. The principle constituent is glycerol tri-(12-hydroxystearate), also known as opalwax. Castorwax® is a hard, brittle, high melting point wax that is insoluble in most organic solvents but is highly compatible with most resins and waxes.

Vorite® 110 has been polymerized by a unique process, which imparts excellent thermal and viscosity stability. They function as polymeric plasticizers for elastomers in adhesive and sealant applications.

Crystal® O PC is a triglyceride expressed from the seeds of the ricinus communis plant. Crystal® O PC is a refined castor oil with excellent oxidative stability. It is odorless, tasteless, light in color, and has good clarity.

Castung™ 103 G-H is an un-bodied dehydrated castor oil (DCO) that can be used with pure and modified phenolic resins to impart alkali resistance for can linings, corrosion resistant coatings, traffic paints, ink vehicles and marine finishes. Castung™ 103 G-H is excellent for formulating alkyd and copolymer resins, where dehydrated castor oil is well known for its non-yellowing and outstanding color retention characteristics.
