This product has a polar structure and therefore pigment wetting is generally improved. BYK-364 P, especially in TGIC-alternative powder coating systems, will improve DOI (distinction of image) and reduce pinholes at the surface of the coating. BYK-364 P also improves leveling of powder coatings systems and prevents "orange peel“. Additionally, BYK-364 P prevents other surface defects specific to powder coating such as craters and fisheyes. BYK-364 P is an OH-functional additive which can be crosslinked with a suitable binder into the coating system. view less | |

It is a low VOC product and therefore an excellent choice when avoiding volatile organics is important. Tyzor® TEP reacts with water by hydrolysis to form a reactive hydroxyl titanium chelate. The chelate is stable in water for extended periods. This chelate can form hydrogen bonds with functional organic groups such as -OH or –COOH. When reacted in this way with multifunctional polymers such as carbohydrates, strong gels may be formed by crosslinking. This product can act as an adhesion promoter to oxidized surfaces by a similar mechanism. view less | |

This product accelerates the crosslinking of amino resins with resins containing hydroxyl groups. Especially low reactive melamine formaldehyde resins of HMMM-type need an accelerator to lower the curing temperature or to reduce the baking time. In comparison with pure para-toluenesulfonic acid, the product shows considerably lower viscosity increase on storage which can extend shelf life 1,5 - 3 times. The additive allows a 10 to 20°C lower baking temperature compared to other blocked para-TSA catalysts (such as those with morpholine or aminomethylpropanol). view less | |

It is a colourless, nearly odorless low viscosity liquid. This product is an excellent silane compatibiliser between inorganic fillers (e.g. kaolin, MDH, ATH) and organic polymers (EPDM, EVA, PE). The application of Dynasylan® 6598 in mineral filled and peroxide crosslinked cable systems results in improved mechanical and electrical properties, especially upon exposure to moisture. The high boiling start of Dynasylan® 6598, together with its high flash point, gives it several advantages over monomeric silanes with respect to safety, handling and processing. From an environmental viewpoint it should be noted that the amount of released hydrolysis ethanol (VOC) is considerably less than for monomeric silanes. view less | |

Barium improves through drying and has good pigment wetting properties. Borchers® Deca driers are metal salts of neodecanoic acids. Barium is used as a wetting agent for pigments and extenders in solvent based coatings systems. It improves gloss and prevents adsorption of the primary driers by pigments and extenders thereby increasing coating stability during prolonged storage. In combination with Borchi® OXY - Coat, Borchers® Deca Cobalt or Borchers® Deca Manganese, barium has a similar effect to that of lead and will promote through drying in many formulations. Borchers® Deca Barium 12.5 is used in solventborne systems based on alkyds and epoxy esters that crosslink by oxidation. view less | |

It imparts coatings with a “soft touch” surface, even if the binder is not an especially soft or elastic type. At the same time it acts as a matting agent. The effect depends on the dosage and the system’s other components, particularly the binder. Deuteron SO 100 is resistant against solvents which are customary in the paint industry. It is temperature resistant up to 160 °C. The small particle size makes the product suitable for thin-film applications. Deuteron SO 100 contains no waxes and thus does not negatively affect the recoatability. In conjunction with isocyanates, the inherent OH-functionality allows the product to be crosslinked in the coating matrix. This can lead to higher mechanical and chemical resistances, which are not attainable by conventional means of adjusting “soft touch” and matting. This product is suitable for all radically curing coatings, especially 100% UV-systems. Deuteron SO 100 is intended for coatings which have to offer a special feel and matting up to a “soft touch”. It can be used in systems of all ranges of film thickness and is largely independent of the layer thickness. Deuteron SO 100 can be combined with other organic matting agents, waxes and silicas. view less | Request Sample |
