Paint and adhesives manufacturers can learn how to better formulate products by mastering the earth’s elements with support from Celanese Emulsion Polymers at Stand 7-105. With new data demonstrating the high performance of vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAE) emulsions in exterior architectural paints, Celanese is showcasing technology that offers excellent protection, including fire retardant properties, and provides the basis for novel coating solutions.

ECS attendees can learn the advantages of the company’s VAE emulsions marketed under the Mowilith® brand throughout Europe. “VAE emulsions have gained strong acceptance for use in low-odor, low-emission interior paints for over a decade, demonstrating the power of water and how waterborne paints help to protect the air and the earth,” said David Faust, Market Segment Manager. “Today, we are moving the VAE emulsions outdoors and are showcasing our patented VAE inclusion technology for use in façade coatings, plasters and also in exterior insulation finishing systems (EIFs),” said Faust.

Other products being showcased include pure acrylic emulsions for use in gloss paints, varnishes and lacquers, featuring excellent outdoor weathering and block resistance. Visitors can also learn more about Celanese’s emulsions for a variety of adhesive applications. For paper packaging and converting adhesives, Mowilith LDM 1081 enables the formulation of low-migration adhesives to meet food packaging regulations and additionally offers excellent nozzle machining.
