ORGAL® ORGAWHITE 2000 is an eco-friendly opacifier, free from ammonia, formaldehyde, and APEO, designed for water-based paints and coatings. It's a non-film-forming polymer emulsion that forms hollow air-filled particles when dried. When used in paint formulations, it acts as a fine particle inorganic extender, enhancing TiO₂ efficiency and allowing for higher pigment volume concentrations due to the low surface area and binder demand.

THETAGUARD™ HS-3012, available in liquid form, falls under the category of construction chemicals, specifically mortar and gypsum additives. It caters to segments in chemical manufacturing.

HM-1000 RESIN is a hot-melt adhesive featuring heat resistance and good compatibility with CASE ingredients. It works well with polymers like ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), styrene isoprene styrene (SIS), and styrene ethylene butylene styrene (SEBS). Ideal for pressure-sensitive adhesives on polyolefins, paper, and paperboard substrates.

X-52-7030 is a multi-functional ingredient that serves a range of purposes in the CASE industry. As a delustering agent and dispersant, it contributes to enhancing material properties. In the realm of Plastics and Elastomers, it takes on the roles of an anti-abrasion agent, impact modifier, and both external and internal lubricant.

HARCROS VENADOL™ 104DPM is a 50% active surface-active agent in dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether with a unique structure that allows for multi-functional properties, including foam control, reduction in surface tension, and viscosity stabilization. This versatility allows to be utilized in various applications such as inks, paint, coatings, adhesives, pigment manufacturing, pigment dispersion, and dye processing. is APE-free.

FUMED SILICA HL-200 is a hydrophilic fumed silica with a specific surface area of 200 m²/g. It is a high-purity white colloidal powder used for reinforcement in elastomers, rheology and thixotropy control in liquid systems, thickening and anti-sagging in binders and polymers, and improvement of free flow and anti-caking characteristics in powders. It is also known for its high transparency.

ETHYLENE GLYCOL is a clear, moderately viscous, and hygroscopic liquid at room temperature. It is a straight-chain aliphatic compound terminated on both ends by a hydroxyl group. This versatile chemical compound finds utility in various applications, including heat transfer agents, unsaturated polyester resins, chemical intermediates, plasticizers, humectants, and solvents.

THETAGUARD™ HS-3035 is a partially fluorinated product created for OEM and aftermarket use with an ambient cure application for hard surfaces. While it provides protection for a wide range of surfaces, it has been particularly engineered to deliver outstanding oil, alcohol, and water repellency on various types of stone, masonry, fine stone, and concrete.

MATTING AGENT TSA-260 is a highly efficient high-matting agent, providing exceptional coating appearance and transparency. This product offers ease of addition and dispersion, making it suitable for various applications such as water-based coatings, wood coatings, metal baking coatings, and plastic coatings.

MATTING AGENT TSA-260L is scientifically known as silica dioxide, or hydrous, and functions as a flattener in coating formulations. With a chemical family of silica, it complies with regulatory standards like DSL (Canada). This powder-form matting agent finds application in various coating types, including radiation-curable coatings, particularly those based on nitrocellulose and polyurethanes. It is suitable for coating substrates like wood, especially in building and construction, industrial, and packaging coatings. Categorized under CASE ingredients, it serves as a surface modifier, enhancing the performance of paints and coatings in diverse applications.

X-52-854 is a powder lubricant, caters to the Chemical Manufacturing and Paints and Coatings industries. With its multifunctional features like internal and external lubrication, heat resistance, good light diffusion, impact resistance, and abrasion resistance, it is designed to enhance the performance of plastics, elastomers, and coatings.

MATTING AGENT TSA-560L is a gel-method silica matting powder with large and equal particle sizes, featuring a special surface treatment. Specifically designed for thick coating-type pre-coated coil coatings, it offers excellent abrasion and scratch resistance while providing a matte finish. This matting agent is dispersible, easy to handle, and functions effectively as a flattener.

SUN-TACK U-90 RESIN is an aromatic petroleum resin in its primary forms, made from the by-product of the C9 resin oil of naphtha crackers. It is particularly suitable as a tackifier in pressure-sensitive adhesives and hot melt adhesive applications for tape, labels, and bookbinding. This is also normally suitable for rubber compound applications.
