Deuteron ST texturing agent can be used in both solvent-based and water-based coating systems. Potential applications include coil-coating systems and coatings for plastic surfaces. The Deuteron ST product line can be used to customize the haptical and optical surface properties. They can also be used as a functional additive to reduce the coefficient of sliding friction.
The texturing agents have different particle size distributions. The coarser grade induces more intense texturing with good maintenance of gloss. The finer grade gives finer texturing. Depending on the specific formulation this can lead to a reduction in the degree of gloss. The coarser fractions are responsible for the texturing, whilst the finer particles can lead to matting.
Depending on the duration of exposure to heat, the texturing agents are thermally stable to well over 200 °C. The products do not melt which distinguishes them from wax and amide-based products. The texturing agents are resistant to most customary solvents.
Deuteron globally supplies additives such as UV initiators, matting agents, wetting agents, dispersing and structuring agents, texturing agents, and conductivity agents in Paint and Coatings. These additives are fast drying, and provide mechanical resistance, and chemical resistance to solvent-borne, water-borne, and solvent-free systems. Deuteron products include Deuteron MK, Deuteron MM, Deuteron OG, etc.

Lists combine the ease of Bookmarks with the versatility of Tags. Instead of one collection of bookmarked items, create as many collections, called "Lists," as you need.
Find the link to your List page in the user menu.
All Tags have been converted to separate Lists, and your bookmarked items have been saved to a "Bookmarks" List.
When you click the Add to List button, a dropdown of your existing Lists appears. Click the List name to which you want to add this product or formula.
You can also create a new List. Simply click "Create a New List" and enter a name.
When you define a new List, the current item is automatically added to it. You can add a product or formula to as many Lists as you need.
Easily see which Lists this item appears in, and quickly go to that List from the links that appear on the page.
