Michem Guard 1350 and 1351 are both nonionic dispersions of polyethylene wax that improve rub and abrasion resistance in pigmented and semigloss coatings, inks and OPVs.
TEGO® Dispers 688 is a premium dispersant for matte UV-curable coatings and printing inks. Processing, and thus productivity, can be improved during manufacturing and continuous application of the coating due to the excellent rheological profile.
Envirnomental products presented included: CristalACTiV™ PC-105 high-surface-area and high-purity ultrafine anatase TiO2 powder with a TiO2 content of ~95% and a surface area of ~90 m2/g; CristalACTiV PC-500 very high-surface-area and high-purity ultrafine anatase TiO2 powder with a TiO2 content of ~85% and a surface area of ~350 m2/g
Ashland featured: Natrosol™ hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) thickener for waterborne architectural coatings; Aquaflow™ nonionic synthetic associative thickeners (NSATs), which are APEO-free liquid additives for the highest performance paint and coatings; Advantage™ and DrewPlus™ foam-control agents; Dextrol™ and Strodex™ specialty surfactants; Nuosept™ in-can preservatives; and Fungitrol™ dry-film fungicides.
The one-stop modular system of four non-APEO-containing and low-VOC Dispersogen® dispersing agents for waterborne pigment preparations offers simplicity without compromising on high performance.
In architectural paint applications, the main challenge for suppliers and paint producers is to meet environmental regulations while producing products with acceptable quality.
Feldspathic minerals are much more costly than ground calcium carbonate, yet they are used in interior formulations because they are perceived to have better physical properties such as scrub and burnish resistance.
Tallicin® 4040 deaerator for polyurea polyaspartic coatings used on concrete, metal, wood and other substrates allows the formulator to minimize surface defects in a 100-percent solids coating system without the use of solvents.
