NANOBYK-3600 is a waterborne dispersion of nano-alumina particles. At levels of 0.5% to 5% being applied to waterborne (UV) coatings, it significantly improves the scratch resistance of those coatings. NANOBYK-3601 is a dispersion of nano-alumina in Tripropylene Glycol Diacrylate (TPGDA), developed for 100% UV-curable coatings. Again, by adding 0.5% to 5% to the coating formulation, mechanical properties of the coatings are improved significantly. BYK-Chemie and Nanophase Technology Corp. (NTC) have developed these products jointly. E-mail frank.dederichs@byk.com.
