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.

RHOPLEX® SG-10C is a versatile 100% copolymer that was designed for use in high-quality interior/exterior semigloss paints. RHOPLEX® SG-10C provides paint formulators with an opportunity to achieve excellent early and ultimate block resistance, and very good flow and leveling. This product establishes a new level of performance for aqueous applications. RHOPLEX® SG-10C is an APEO (alkyl phenol ethoxylate) surfactant free1 binder and contains no intentionally added PFAS.

ACRYSOL™ DR-5500 is a new associative thickener that delivers the same performance as ACRYSOL RM-5, but without the use of APEO surfactants. ACRYSOL™ DR-5500 provides excellent gloss, film build, and flow in latex paints. Being both APEO-free and solvent-free, ACRYSOL™ DR-5500 is ideally suited to meet the latest regulatory requirements for waterborne paints and coatings. This product enhances high shear (ICI Cone and; Plate) viscosity, resulting in coatings with high film build characteristics, improving hiding and appearance. Additional benefits for manufacturers include minimal roller spatter and the full realization of gloss potential in latex paints. Since ACRYSOL™ DR-5500 uses hydrophobically-modified alkali-soluble chemistry, it offers a high degree of resistance to bacterial and enzymatic attack, ensuring long-term paint viscosity stability.

TAMOL® 165A is a high-performance dispersant for latex gloss through flat paints. It is an ammonium salt of a hydrophobic copolymer dispersant that offers enhanced properties to latex paints, resulting in improved water resistance, wet adhesion, early blister resistance, water spot resistance, and corrosion resistance.

RHOPLEX® 57 is a binder and resin used primarily as a binder.

RHOPLEX® AC-1034 is a styrenated acrylic copolymer with a distinct composition that imparts excellent water resistance as well as a good degree of flexibility. It is designed for use in edge sealer products and offers very good compatibility with high levels of waxes and fillers, which are often used in such products. RHOPLEX® AC-1034 can also be used as a clear primer or sealer coat to provide water resistance.

ACRYSOL™ RM-845 Rheology Modifier is a new generation, solvent-free, APEO-free, non-ionic product. ACRYSOL™ RM-845 is based upon patented and proprietary technology that enables it to contain 27% solids yet be provided at a low viscosity to allow facile pumping and pouring. ACRYSOL RM-845 Rheology Modifier builds mid-shear Stormer viscosity more efficiently than existing KU-builders. It is recommended for acrylic- and styrene/acrylic-based latex coating formulations. ACRYSOL™ RM-845 Rheology Modifier offers excellent flow and leveling, as well as gloss development, for both interior and exterior paints. It imparts a rheological profile to architectural and industrial coatings very similar to that of ACRYSOL RM-825, but with the benefit of no added solvent, allowing for ultra-low VOC formulations.

MAINCOTE™ HG-31 is a binder and resin classified under chemical mixtures and blends.

RHOPLEX® WL-91 is a binder and resin, classified as a chemical mixture and blend. It is used in architectural coatings, automotive OEM coatings, automotive and transportation, industrial applications, and paints and coatings. It functions as a binder.

RHOPLEX® Multilobe™ 200 gives you the outstanding durability, tint retention, and dirt resistance you've come to expect from an all-acrylic binder. And more. Unlike other acrylic binders that contain only spherical particles, RHOPLEX® Multilobe™ 200 contains an optimized level of both spherical and lobed particles. This unique lobed particle geometry enhances brush drag. The result is a binder that provides an extraordinary combination of acrylic durability, film build, chalk adhesion and minimized thickener, and surfactant levels in the paint formulation. RHOPLEX® Multilobe™ 200 saves on raw material costs in that less surfactant is needed for color acceptance in tint bases. Foaming and surfactant leaching are minimized, too.

RHOPLEX® WL-51 is ideal for high-performance waterborne finishes for coating plastic substrates, such as those used for business machines and office equipment. RHOPLEX® WL-51 is recommended for use on the following plastics: acrylonitrile/butadiene/styrene, polycarbonate, polyphenylene oxide, polyvinyl chloride, acrylic, polystyrene, high-impact polystyrene, polypropylene, and pre-treated thermoplastic polyolefin. RHOPLEX® WL-51 delivers an outstanding combination of application, durability, and appearance benefits that make it an excellent choice for demanding business and office applications.

RHOPLEX® TP-257 is a high-solids binder for waterborne acrylic traffic paints, which offers a good cost/performance balance. Quick-drying striping paints formulated with RHOPLEX® TP-2577 resist the rigorous environment encountered on highways and related surfaces such as airfields and parking lots.

TAMOL® 731 DP is a dispersant used in the production of latex paints.

RHOPLEX® PR-409AF is an aqueous, all-acrylic binder designed for premium performance in universal stain blocking primers and primer-less paints. It’s distinct molecular weight distribution, combined with ambient crosslinking enables excellent adhesion to a variety of substrates without the use of APEO surfactants1. Coatings based on RHOPLEX® PR-409AF provide robust adhesion to metals, wood, masonry, cementitious, ceramic, alkyd and especially aged chalky substrates. The great compatibility of RHOPLEX® PR-409AF with zinc oxide can further enhance the exceptional stain blocking (household and tannin) and efflorescence of primers made with it. This binder further affords step out performance with the unusual combination of superior crack resistance combined with excellent dirt pick up resistance.
