NEW PRODUCTS
SYNTHETIC CELLULOSE THICKENER
Nouryon has launched Bermocoll FLOW cellulose ether,
a new product that combines the flow and levelling
properties of an associative synthetic thickener with the
stability properties of a cellulose thickener. Bermocoll
FLOW, Nouryon says, delivers an optimal balance of sag
resistance and levelling along with improved spatter
resistance and hiding compared to paint systems made
with standard thickeners. Moreover, the product is soluble
in water, and well-suited for low volatile organic compound
(VOC) paint formulations and airless spray applications.
This makes it a natural, more sustainable alternative for
both interior and exterior decorative paints.
As an alternative to associative synthetic thickeners for
rheology control of decorative paints, Bermocoll FLOW can
deliver little to no spatter through proper flow behaviour.

CLARIANT UNVEILS BIO-BASED
SURFACTANTS
Clariant has unveiled its new Vita 100 per cent bio-based
surfactants and polyethylene glycols (PEGs). These aim to
directly address climate change by helping remove fossil
carbon from the value chain.
The introduction of 100 per cent bio-based surfactants
and PEGs significantly expands Clariant's Vita designated
ingredients. Vita products are based on renewable feedstocks
and have at least a 98 per cent Renewable Carbon Index
(RCI).
Clariant uses 100 per cent bio-ethanol from sugar cane or
corn to create the ethylene oxide for its new surfactants and
PEGs.
