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.

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.

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.

Bayferrox® 180 NM is a single-ingredient inorganic pigment (Pigment Red 101) based on iron(III) oxide, designed for applications requiring stable red coloring.

RHOPLEX® HG-1630 is a binder and resin used in architectural coatings, automotive OEM coatings, automotive and transportation, industrial applications, and paints and coatings. It functions as a binder.

RHOPLEX® 585 is a 100% acrylic binder designed for premium exterior performance in flat and satin Architectural Coatings. It is supplied at high solids for formulation flexibility and does not contain any APEO (alkyl phenol ethoxylate) surfactants. The low coalescent demand of RHOPLEX® 585 allows the formulator to meet the 50g/VOC regulations while still maintaining some freeze thaw stability. Due to its 100% acrylic composition, RHOPLEX® 585 offers good exterior durability.

RHOPLEX® B-85 is a very firm anionic acrylic binder used as an additive to anionic binders to stiffen hand. Unlike other RHOPLEX™ dispersions, RHOPLEX™ B-85 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.

Bayferrox® 110 is a single-ingredient inorganic pigment, identified as Pigment Red 101. It provides strong color performance in various applications.

RHOPLEX® HG-95P Emulsion Polymer was developed specifically for low VOC aqueous gloss enamels with excellent durability and resistance properties. It is recommended for interior/exterior applications in both high gloss and semigloss finishes. RHOPLEX® HG-95P Emulsion Polymer uses new ambient temperature crosslinking technology to offer improved performance versus conventional latex polymers. This new polymer technology was designed to provide VOC compliant enamels with excellent hardness development and durability for high traffic interior applications.

RHOPLEX® AC-261LF is an all-acrylic emulsion polymer for latex floor paints. Its adhesion and abrasion resistance have been designed for this application. It is also suitable for quality exterior semi-gloss trim paints.

ACRYSOL™ DR-2 Rheology Modifier is a synthetic, liquid thickener that offers a low cost/high performance alternative to cellulosic thickeners in interior flat latex paints. ACRYSOL™ DR-2 Rheology Modifier offers application and feel properties very similar to medium grades of cellulosic thickeners. It also has outstanding spatter resistance. ACRYSOL™ DR-2 Rheology Modifier is easy to handle and incorporate into the paint and is formulated to resist microbial contamination.
