VANCRYL® 927 is a medium glass transition temperature acrylic emulsion for the graphic arts industry. Excellent gloss can be obtained by utilizing VANCRYL® 927 in inks and coatings. Its film formation properties, coupled with its rapid water release, result in very fast drying. It is suitable for both flexographic and gravure printing on paper substrates. VANCRYL® 927 has excellent compatibility with pigment dispersions and alcohols. Inks formulated with VANCRYL® 927 have good transfer, printability, and resolubility for high-quality printing on various paper substrates (including metalized paper) and aluminum foil. VANCRYL® 927 can also be formulated as a high gloss OPV that will very quickly develop water, oil, and scuff resistance.

H.B. Fuller® PD-2222 is a self-crosslinking binder and resin used in waterborne adhesives for adhesives and sealants.

Silcolapse® 5020 is a non-ionic aqueous emulsion containing dimethylpolysiloxane, and is highly effective for prevention, control and elimination of foam in aqueous media. Silcolapse® 5020 contains 20% of active ingredient and is designed for industrial uses. Other specialized defoaming agents exist for use in food contact please consult us about them.

RHOPLEX® N-1031-D is an acrylic emulsion which may be used neat or as an adhesive formulating base. This polymer product demonstrates very high shear (cohesive) strength and moderate tack and peel properties.

Silcolapse® CLEAR 30 is a new silicone emulsion that offers an excellent compromise with very high foam control performance and very good compatibility with numerous media especially in Agrochemicals thanks to innovative silicone technology.

SILCOLEASE™ PC-94 is an emulsion of Dioctyl Tin Dilaurate. This is the catalyst component of a silicone release formulation and promotes polymerization through a polycondensation reaction.

PACE® 383 is a vinyl acetate homopolymer made in a polyvinyl alcohol colloidal system

MAINCOTE™ PR-71 is used for all protective coating applications, the first need is for adhesion to and passivation of the substrate. In the past, difficult-to-adhere-to substrates were often treated with a vinyl wash primer to passivate the substrate and provide adhesion for subsequent coats. These vinyl wash primers are increasingly difficult to use as they are very low in solids, high in VOC, and contain toxic pigments. In contrast, MAINCOTE™ PR-71 Waterborne Acrylic Resin allows the coatings manufacturer to supply primers that not only adhere to difficult metallic substrates, but also give good corrosion resistance over carbon steel. This resin's ability to be topcoated by most solvent-based coating systems makes it a very versatile water-based primer.

Silcolapse® 721 is a non-ionic aqueous 10% active silicone antifoam and/or defoamer. It offers excellent antifoam and defoaming properties in a wide variety of aqueous applications including those with incidental food contact as well as food processing applications. Silcolapse® 721 effectively controls foam at concentrations as low as 10 ppm solids, even at elevated temperatures. Silcolapse® 721 gives good results at wide-ranging pH and provides a cost effective solution where foam is a problem.

MAINCOTE™ HG-56 is an aqueous emulsion designed as a binder for maintenance coatings. While it is compositionally similar to MAINCOTE™ HG-54D Acrylic Resin, its somewhat larger particle size mandates that it be formulated in a different manner. The formulator should pay particular attention to the guidelines in this brochure.

RHOPLEX® B-88 is a very nonionic acrylic firm binder used as an additive to stiffen hand. Unlike other RHOPLEX® dispersions, RHOPLEX® B-88 does not form continuous films under normal conditions of application. When blended with softer polymers it helps produce films with improved toughness and improved resistance to blocking while maintaining good water resistance.

UCECOAT® 7674 is an acrylated polyurethane dispersion in water designed for waterborne UV/EB curable coatings. UCECOAT® 7674 is anionic in nature, making it compatible with water without any external emulsifier. Due to the presence of these ionic groups, it is not stable under acidic conditions. UCECOAT 7674 contains no co-solvent. UCECOAT® 7674 exhibits outstanding wetting of wood surfaces, imparting warmth and richness to the appearance of the wood. UCECOAT® 7674 provides hardness in the polymerized coating along with good stain and chemical resistance.

RHOPLEX® AC-2235M is a 100% acrylic binder designed for use in exterior flat and sheen latex housepaints. The polymer provides a high degree of adhesion and durability. Film build and flow and leveling, however, are not as good as with newer acrylic binders. RHOPLEX® AC-2235M Acrylic Emulsion Polymer is designed to provide the same properties and performance as RHOPLEX® AC-235 in paint formulations, but at a lower price. RHOPLEX® AC-2235M may be substituted on a pound- for-pound basis for RHOPLEX® AC-235. As with any raw material substitution, key properties, such as adhesion and color acceptance, should be evaluated.

ACRYSOL™ WS-68 Emulsion is a thermosetting acrylic polymer supplied as a colloidal dispersion in water. When formulated with monomeric melamine resins, it facilitates the formulation of industrial baking enamels that offer excellent spray characteristics and film properties.

RHOPLEX® AC-264 is a unique high solids, 100% acrylic emulsion vehicle for exterior latex paints which provides a high level of adhesion to chalky substrates. RHOPLEX® AC-264 represents a slight modification of RHOPLEX® AC-64 is recommended as a substitute for the latter product. As when making any raw material change, the formulator should check key properties such as color acceptance and adhesion.
