POLYCO™ 2160 is Carboxylated Polyvinyl Acetate Homopolymer with excellent mechanical stability and very low grit levels. Medium particle size with good pigment binding ability and excellent water resistance. Minimizes "water interference mottle" in offset printing and offers good ink receptivity, glueability, and brightness with very low odor.

EVOQUE™ 3150C was engineered to enhance titanium dioxide efficiency, providing improved hiding or equivalent hiding at a reduced titanium dioxide usage level. This acrylic emulsion incorporates ambient crosslinking technology, which improves household stain resistance performance and chemical resistance properties. Based on prior commercial iterations of EVOQUE™ technology, the overall exterior durability is anticipated to be excellent.

PARALOID™ XR-34 Resin is an effective pigment dispersant. They may also be blended with alkyds or nitrocellulose to improve the drying speed, gasoline resistance, and durability characteristics of the coating. They also provide significant upgrades to the gloss and hardness of other acrylic resins and other film formers when used as the grinding medium. PARALOID XR-34 is a slightly harder resin than PARALOID B-99. PARALOID B-99 resin is supplied at 50% solids in a toluene/xylene mixture. It is also available as a solid grade PARALOID B-99N. PARALOID XR-34 resin is supplied at 50% solids in xylene.

AVANSE™ ST-410 is a new high-performance, 100% acrylic, waterborne polymer can be formulated to meet the toughest VOC standards and still outperform traditional solvent and waterborne semitransparent stain technologies. Semitransparent stains based on AVANSE™ ST-410 Acrylic Emulsion do not require coalescent or heavy metal driers, they are easy to apply, and they enhance the appearance of new and weathered wood with a long-lasting finish. In addition, the combination of morphology and unique particle stabilization maximizes the flow and lapping characteristics during application, while building early resistance properties upon drying.

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.

PARALOID™ B-72 100% Resin has low reactivity with sensitive phosphorescent and luminescent pigments to produce stable, durable, non-yellowing coatings. It is compatible with vinyls, cellulosics, chlorinated rubbers, and silicones. It is well suited for white and metallic aerosols, clear coatings for wood, nitrocellulose modified coatings for general product finishing, pigment dispersion (fluorescent), flexographic printing inks, and gravure plastic coatings.

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.

ACRYSOL™ RM-7 Rheology Modifier is a remarkably versatile hydrophobically modified alkali-soluble emulsion (HASE) thickening agent for latex coatings. Like other HASE modifiers, ACRYSOL™ RM-7 Rheology Modifier offers a nearly Newtonian rheology profile with lower viscosity in low-shear conditions and higher viscosity in high-shear conditions than cellulosic thickeners deliver. As a result, it can produce paints with a very desirable combination of good flow/leveling and film build properties. ACRYSOL™ RM-7 Rheology Modifier is distinguished by a capacity to generate high-shear viscosity very efficiently, a feature that makes it exceptionally well suited to use with all acrylic emulsions, being developed for low-VOC, non flat waterborne paints.

FORMASHIELD™ 12 is an aqueous all-acrylic emulsion polymer designed for use in premium, ultra-low VOC interior paints. Paints can be formulated with FORMASHIELD™ 12 Binder to actively and irreversibly remove formaldehyde from the ambient air in commercial or residential interior spaces, offering significant improvement in Indoor Air Quality.

POLYCO™ 4160 is a binder and resin used in architectural coatings, automotive OEM coatings, industrial coatings, and paints and coatings applications.

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.

PARALOID™ DM-55 100% Resin is a very efficient pigment grinding vehicle, with an excellent compatibility with a wide variety of other resins including acrylics, vinyls, epoxies and polyester. PARALOID™ DM-55 100% Resin is soluble in a wide range of solvents having solubility parameters in the 8.5 to 11.5 range. It also possesses good tolerance to aliphatic solvents.

RHOPLEX® HG-98C is an acrylic emulsion polymer designed specifically for low solvent content, aqueous gloss enamels with excellent appearance and resistance properties. RHOPLEX® HG-98C uses ambient temperature crosslinking technology to offer improved performance versus conventional polymers. It has excellent hardness development and durability for high traffic interior applications.

PARALOID™ B-67 100% Resin is particularly compatible with medium and long-oil alkyds, drying oils, and oleoresinous varnishes. When used to modify these materials, coatings with improved hardness, faster drying speed, and better retention of color and gloss result. Hold out and brushing characteristics are also improved.
