M ATERIALS WATCH Additive Evonik Industries: Dispers 670 is a high-performance wetting and dispersing additive for solventborne applications. It allows the formulation of organic, inorganic or carbon black pigment dispersions for highend applications such as automotive coatings, industrial two-pack PU systems or enamels requiring superior transparency and high gloss. It provides effective reduction of mill-base viscosities and high pigment loadings with excellent pigment stabilization. Visit www.tego.de. TEGO® inks at levels as low as 0.35% on polymer solids. Indefinitely stable in waterborne coatings without the loss in adhesion benefits, they substantially improve adhesion to metal, wood, concrete and plastics. Visit www.chartwellintl.com. to acid and base, acetone products, and ethanol and alcohol. It gives PUD coatings more adhesion to metal and plastic substrates. A liquid, non-crystalline product, it is easier to handle and requires less heat or energy to melt. E-mail bo.haeggman@perstorp.com. Pigment Shepherd Color: Dynamix Black 30C933 is a stir-in inorganic color pigment for the coatings market. Typical applica- Biocide Clariant: Nipacide® BIT 10W is a VOC- and solvent-free biocide for in-can applications. An EPA-registered, economical solution, it is widely used as an in-can preservative in the paint and coatings industry, as well as in adhesives, emulsions, paper, sealants and latex systems. E-mail nayib.homayden@clariant.com. Acrylic Emulsion Rohm and Haas: Based on 100-percent acrylic technology, DirtShield™ 08 is a new solution for high-performance exterior durability. Incorporating surface cross-linking technology, it is a lower-Tg polymer, requiring minimal film-forming additives, which results in coatings with excellent dirt-pick-up resistance at a lower overall cost. Other advantages include low-temperature cracking resistance, water whitening resistance and low VOC. Visit www.rohmhaas.com. Curing Agent Albemarle Corp.: ETHACURE 300 curative provides an easy-to-handle, high-performing option in hot- and cold-cast PU elastomer applications. It is a low-viscosity liquid that is easy to mix, meter and dispense, and doesn’t “freeze up” at low temperature. Visit www.ethacure.com. tions include liquid and powder coatings, silicate and masonry coatings, and radiation-cured coatings. With complete dispersion time in as little as five minutes, it is compatible with solvent and waterborne coatings systems as well as 100%-solids systems and UV-cured coatings. Visit www.shepherdcolor.com. Additive Taminco: Vantex®-T, the zero-VOC, lowodor amine additive for paints and coatings, allows manufacturers to lower VOCs by reducing solvent levels. It provides excellent film-forming properties and multifunctional performance and allows paint producers to make lowodor paints. Visit www.vantex-t.com. Adhesion Promoters Chartwell International, Inc.: This new family of high-performance metal organic adhesion promoters provides aqueous solutions with zero VOC. They may be incorporated as easy post-adds to waterborne coatings, adhesives and Polycarbonate Diol Perstorp: Oxymer™ C112 improves PUD coatings with balance between film hardness and coating flexibility as well as stronger water and chemical resistance, which includes resistance Visit ads.pcimag.com PCI10084KNCH.indd 1 7/7/08 9:54:17 AM 78 NOVEMBER 2008 | W W W .
