CYMEL® NF 2000A Resin is a unique trifunctional melamine-based crosslinker containing reactive carbamate functionality supplied in n-butanol. It can be used to crosslink hydroxy- and epoxy-containing polymers to give highly durable, acid-resistant films that exhibit a favorable balance of hardness and flexibility. An important feature of CYMEL® NF 2000A Resin is that it does not contain or emit formaldehyde on cure. It can be employed as the sole crosslinker in a coating or ink formulation, or it may be used at lower levels in combination with other crosslinkers, such as amino resins or isocyanates, in order to obtain a balance of properties.

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

CRAYVALLAC® LA-350 is used in acrylics and alkyds for waterborne coatings. It features high shear thinning, high thixotropy, improved anti-sagging properties, recoatability, sag resistance, and viscosity control. The product functions as a rheology modifier in CASE ingredients.

Dynasylan® GLYMO is a bifunctional organosilane possessing a reactive organic epoxide and hydrolyzable inorganic methoxysilyl groups. The dual nature of its reactivity allows Dynasylan® GLYMO to bind chemically to both inorganic materials (e.g. glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers), thus functioning as an adhesion promoter, crosslinking agent and/or surface modifier. Dynasylan® GLYMO is a colorless low­viscosity liquid with a slight terpentine­like odor. It is soluble in alcohols, ketones and aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons.

CYMEL® U-80 Resin is a highly n-butylated urea resin supplied at >96% solids content. Its high extent of alkylation and hydrophobic nature make the CYMEL® U-80 Resin suitable for a wide range of coating applications, including high solids primers for automotive, general industrial, and container coatings, providing improved film flexibility and adhesion to various substrates. CYMEL® U-80 resin is insoluble in water but can be used in emulsified form as a crosslinking agent in water-dispersible alkyds, acrylic resins, and in emulsion systems.

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.

Dynasylan® 1124 is a secondary aminofunctional methoxy- silane possessing two symmetric silicon atoms. Dynasylan® 1124 acts as an adhesion promoter between inorganic materials (for example glass, metals and fillers) and organic polymers (thermosets, thermoplastics and elastomers), as a surface modifier and can be used, for the chemical modification of substances. Dynasylan® 1124 is a colorless to yellow liquid with an amine-like odor, which is, for example, soluble in alcohols, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons.

D.E.R.® 354LV liquid epoxy resin is a standard liquid epoxy resin based on the reaction products of Bisphenol F and epichlorohydrin.

D.E.R.® 331 liquid epoxy resin is a liquid reaction product of epichlorohydrin and Bisphenol A.

CRAYVALLAC® PA4 X 20 is a rheology modifier pre-activated amide wax supplied in a mixture of xylene and alcohol. It is a rheology modifier in paste form with enhanced transparency, excellent anti-sagging and anti-settling properties.CRAYVALLAC® PA4 X 20 is supplied in the form of crystalline fibres. In a coating system, these fibres form an interacting network. This network gives rise to the shear thinning rheology of the final coating. This shear thinning characteristic provides a very high viscosity under the low shear rates associated with sedimentation, and a low viscosity at the much higher application shear rates. The net result is excellent control of sedimentation combined with ease of application.

RHOPLEX® WL-81, waterborne, acrylic polymer is specifically designed for the formulation of clear and pigmented ambient or forced-air-dry industrial lacquers. Coating systems based on this polymer are suitable for use on a variety of substrates and offer a number of key benefits currently provided by solvent borne industrial lacquers, but without the flammability, odor, or other problems inherent with such systems.

WANNATE® HDI is a liquid aliphatic diisocyanate. It is a colorless or pale yellow liquid with low viscosity.

ACEMATT® HK 440 is an untreated, extremely coarse particle sized precipitated silica. It is especially recommended for base coats, thick-film applications, and general industrial coatings.

“AEROSIL® E 812 is a fumed silica post-treated with an organosilane (HMDS). It has a high specific surface area and exhibits exceptional hydrophobicity. The material is very easy to disperse

AEROSIL® R 805 Silicas is a fumed silica after-treated with organosilane. It provides utmost transparency.
