XIBOND® 265 is a reactive additive to improve the blend morphology of polymer blends. This additive is a random copolymer of styrene and maleic anhydride.

CRAYVALLAC® SLX is a high performance micronised amide wax rheology modifier designed for the low temperature manufacture of moisture curing methoxysilane systems, where processing temperatures typically lie within the range 60 - 90°C. CRAYVALLAC® SLX particles are converted to an interacting network of crystalline fibres. It is this network that gives rise to the shear thinning rheology. This shear thinning characteristic provides for a low viscosity at the shear rates associated with application by extrusion, and a very high viscosity under the low shear rates experienced after application. The net result is ease of application followed by excellent sag and slump resistance.

LOTADER® 4700 is a random ethylene-ethyl acrylate-maleic anhydride terpolymer. Acrylic ester brings softness and polarity, while keeping high thermal stability during processing. The high content of acrylic ester leads to high flexibility (low-crystallinity) and high impact absorption behavior. Maleic anhydride provides reactivity (towards OH and NH2 groups), leading to optimal dispersion during melt mixing with engineering thermoplastics. LOTADER® 4700 is suitable as modifier to improve the impact strength of polyamides (PA6, PA66, PA12...). It can also be used as a compatibiliser for polyamides/polyolefins blends.

CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 is a modified urea dissolved in DMSO. CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 is a pourable liquid rheology modifier for post addition to water-based coatings such as water-dilutable alkyds and acrylic emulsions. It was developed to ensure particular suitability for metal coating as its formula is lithium chloride-free. CRAYVALLAC® LA-377 should be added to the coating as a slow stream under low to medium shear conditions to ensure sufficient dispersion. Although efficient stirring is required to ensure homogeneity, elevated temperatures are not required for activation and the use of excessive shear should be avoided.

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.

VANCRYL® 68 is a solid acrylic resin that provides outstanding pigment wetting along with the viscosity stability needed for aqueous gravure and flexographic inks. The transfer properties and hold-out characteristics of inks prepared with VANCRYL 68 are excellent. In coatings, VANCRYL® 68 provides high gloss, scuff resistance, and hardness. VANCRYL 68 is compatible with most acrylic vehicles and other vehicles such as maleic resins. VANCRYL® 68 is effective as a protective colloid in the production of styrene-acrylic copolymer emulsions.

CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001 is a 40% active dispersion of polyethylene wax in water. The low viscosity and high active content of this dispersion, together with freedom from dust, assist the efficiency of manufacturing processes. CRAYVALLAC® WW-1001 provides the formulator with the means of controlling the frictional characteristics of a coating as well as enhancing its surface protection properties.

CRAYVALLAC® PA3 XAF 20 is an alcohol-free pre-activated amide wax supplied in xylene. It is a rheology modifier in paste form with high efficiency (optimum sag resistance and viscosity).CRAYVALLAC® PA3 XAF 20 is supplied in the form of crystalline fibres. In a coating system, these fibres form an interacting network. This network gives rise to the shear thinning rheology of the final coating. This shear thinning characteristic 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.

DYNOL™ 800 has the ability to reduce both static and dynamic surface tension in waterborne coatings and inks. DYNOL™ 800 is an excellent choice for difficult-to-wet substrates requiring good flow and leveling.

EBECRYL® 1258 is a trifunctional aliphatic urethane acrylate diluted 20% by weight with hydroxypropylmethacrylate (HPMA) that does not contain any intentionally added organic tin compounds, heavy metals, hydroquinone (HQ) or methyl ether of hydroquinone (MEHQ). (Please note that quinones are present in many raw materials, so the overall quinone content is reduced, but not zero in EBECRYL® 1258.) Films of EBECRYL® 1258 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) combine abrasion resistance, flexibility, and adhesion with resistance to yellowing.

Wayncor™ 213 is a general purpose corrosion inhibitive pigment which demonstrates good stability and corrosion resistance in a wide variety of systems. Typical use level is between 3 - 7% total formula weight.

Waynflash™ 111 is a liquid flash rust inhibitor which contains sodium nitrite as part of its flash rust inhibition matrix. It is a highly effective inhibitor for the flash rusting on ferrous substrates during aqueous paint phase. It has also proven to be affective in preventing in can rusting. Typical used levels range from 0.25 - 1.0% max. based upon total formula weight. It is highly versatile and can be used in any water based systems. WaynflashTM 111 exhibits good paint stability and can be incorporated at any stage of paint manufacturing. It is both HAPS and APEO free.

TEDA (triethylenediamine) is a diamine used in architectural coatings, building and construction, industrial, and industrial and assembly adhesives applications.

CRAYVALLAC® WS-4700 is a 40% active dispersion of polyethylene wax in isopropanol. The low viscosity and high active content of this dispersion, together with freedom from dust, assist the efficiency of manufacturing processes. CRAYVALLAC® WS-4700 provides the formulator with the means of controlling the frictional characteristics of a coating as well as enhancing its surface protection properties.

LOTADER® 3430 is a random ethylene-methyl acrylate-maleic anhydride terpolymer. LOTADER® 3430 is a versatile adhesive for extrusion coating or lamination, designed as: Concentrate to be used in dry blend with LDPE. LOTADER® 3430 improves adhesion of LDPE on aluminium foils, metallized or primerized films. Ready for use resin to be used pure. LOTADER® 3430 gives excellent adhesion on substrates likes aluminum foil, metallized plastics, paper, board, PE and some plastic films like BOPP. Coextrusion tie layer for PE/PA in extrusion coating process.
