EBECRYL® 445 is a reactive chlorinated polyester resin diluted 40% with the reactive diluent trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA)(1). EBECRYL 445 is not based on bisphenol A raw materials, and is tin-free. EBECRYL 445 exhibits good lithographic behavior and pigment wetting properties, and fast cure response in ultraviolet light (UV) curable coatings and inks. Cured films of EBECRYL 445 display good adhesion to metals, and paper.

EBECRYL® 3500 is a modified bisphenol A epoxy diacrylate that exhibits relatively low viscosity, outstanding performance in many wood coating applications, and adhesion to many plastics. Films of EBECRYL® 3500 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) demonstrate good flexibility, high gloss, toughness, adhesion and superior chemical resistance.

ACRYSOL™ TT-935 Rheology Modifier is an alkali-soluble, anionic associative thickener, designed to give medium-shear-rate viscosity in interior/exterior flat latex paints. ACRYSOL™ TT-935 Rheology Modifier can be used as either a primary or co-thickener in water-based coatings. It offers excellent resistance to roller spattering with better film build and leveling than conventional thickeners. Paints formulated with ACRYSOL™ TT-935 Rheology Modifier as a sole thickener exhibit improved flow and leveling compared with medium- to high-molecular-weight cellulosic thickeners. The rheology can be modified to further improve flow and leveling by addition of low levels of surfactant or glycol-ether-type co-solvents to reduce the low-shear viscosity. Addition of some pre-dispersed colorant may also have this effect. ACRYSOL™ TT-935 Rheology Modifier is recommended for interior paints requiring improved flow and leveling and lower raw material cost compared to cellulosic thickeners. Where superior water resistance is required, we recommend ACRYSOL™ SCT-275 Rheology Modifier. ACRYSOL™ TT-935 can be used in exterior paints, but formulators should exercise caution to minimize potential blistering due to the anionic nature of this product. Delivered as a low-viscosity liquid, it is very easy to handle and incorporate into paint. It is resistant to microbiological degradation, thereby avoiding viscosity loss in paint, a common problem for manufacturers.

Bayferrox® 110 M is a single-ingredient inorganic pigment, identified as Pigment Red 101. It is offering strong and reliable color for various applications.

Bayferrox® 6672 is an inorganic pigment based on iron compounds, available as a single ingredient product used in various pigmentation applications.

RHOPLEX® CL-105 is designed for use in factory-applied, waterborne, acrylic wood finishes that require warmth, clarity, grain character and sandability. Sealers based on this emulsion have excellent sanding characteristics without the addition of stearates or other sanding aids. Formulations based on RHOPLEX® CL-105 are clear from the moment they are applied due to their excellent wet film clarity. These formulations also dry very rapidly. Clear lacquers based on RHOPLEX® CL-105 are formulated to have very low VOC and HAPS content, important advantages over solvent borne lacquers.

Bayferrox® 663 is an inorganic pigment based on iron compounds, used primarily for pigmentation in various applications, including plastics and elastomers.

3M™ Glass Bubbles iM16K are high-strength polymer additives made from a water-resistant and chemically-stable soda-lime borosilicate glass. These hollow glass microspheres can be used as a low density filler material ideal for plastic and rubber parts created from injection molding, extrusion processes, or other vigorous processing equipment (e.g., Banbury mixers, etc.), offering improved processing over many conventional fillers. They can reduce final part weight by 15% or more without compromising the mechanical integrity. 3M™ Glass Bubbles iM16K help to reduce weight, improve dimensional stability, reduce shrinkage and sink marks, and contribute to material and process cost savings. They may be ideal additive materials for applications in the automotive, heavy truck, aerospace, electrical, sports and leisure, electronics, appliance and durable goods industries. 3M glass bubbles are also valuable in construction products such as polymer/wood composites and siding helping not only to reduce part weight, but also to improve dimensional stability and nail-ability.

ACRYSOL™ SCT-275 Rheology Modifier is an efficient nonionic polyethylene oxide(HEUR) associative rheology modifier which can impart excellent rheological properties including flow and leveling, uniform film formation and film build, to latex based coatings. ACRYSOL™ SCT-275 Rheology Modifier is recommended for use in flat to semigloss paints and primers for both exterior paints and premium interior paints.It is especially suited to replace or be blended with conventional cellulosic thickeners where improved flow and leveling, increased hiding, and spatter resistance is desired. ACRYSOL™ SCT-275 Rheology Modifier is particularly suited for low solids, vinyl acrylic formulations where it yields excellent flow/sag balance, color acceptance, and syneresis resistance. ACRYSOL™ SCT-275 Rheology Modifier is supplied as a low viscosity liquid that is easy to handle and incorporate in the paint making process.

D.E.R.® 736 Liquid Epoxy Resin is a reaction product of epichlorohydrin and polypropylene glycol.

AEROSIL® 200 V is a densified hydrophilic fumed silica with a specific surface area of 200 m²/g.

Bayferrox® 120 M is a high-quality inorganic pigment, known as Pigment Red 101, composed of Iron(III) oxide. Bayferrox® 120 M offers excellent color stability in various applications. It is a single-ingredient product suitable for a variety of industrial uses.

ACRYSOL™ RM-725 Rheology Modifier is a solvent-free, hydrophobically modified ethylene oxide urethane (HEUR) based on proprietary technology for an excellent balance of properties. ACRYSOL™ RM-725 Rheology Modifier is designed as a universal, efficient mid shear viscosity builder with all binder types that are used for interior wall paints as well as exterior systems for wood, trim stains and masonry. This KU-building associative thickener offers formulators an excellent balance of sag resistance and leveling, including PVA and VAE binder based paints. ACRYSOL™ RM-725 Rheology Modifier also contributes significant to high shear viscosity, allowing the reduction of ICI builder use level in the paint.

3M™ Ceramic Microspheres W-410 are unique, semi-transparent, white-colored, fine particle size, high-strength microspheres. These products are typically used to reduce VOC levels, increase filler loadings, improve hardness and add burnish, scrub and abrasion resistance to a variety of coating formulations. Due to the ceramic chemistry of these products they are also UV transparent down to 250 nm and have utility in radiation-curable and thin-film powder coatings.

EBECRYL® 411 is a modified polyester resin for flexographic narrow web and rotary screen applications. It was developed for low viscosity inks and coatings with excellent adhesion to unprimed OPP films. EBECRYL® 411 is diluted with dipropyleneglycol diacrylate (DPGDA) monomer.
