Borchi® OXY-Coat by Borchers (Milliken) is a high concentration, low-VOC, cobalt-free drier and metal-based catalyst. It improves drying activity, color performance, gloss and haze compared to cobalt-based driers in water- and solvent-based systems. It is suitable for high solids, composites and can be applied in multiple coats. It is based on a unique, patented and highly active iron complex.

• It offers improved adhesion in direct to metal applications.
• It extends the coatings season window by providing consistent curing performance in all weather conditions (hot or cold, dry or humid) for short, medium and long oil alkyd systems.
• It provides improved stain- and chemical resistance and lower gardner color numbers and can prevent wrinkles at higher film builds.
• It can be used in coatings for adverse weather conditions.
• It is recommended for all solvent-based coatings containing binders or resins that dry by oxidation including vegetable oils, epoxy esters and polybutadiene.
• Applications include wood flooring, architectural-, protective and marine coating.
• It is APEO-free, REACH and Proposition 65 compliant.
• The recommended dosage level of Borchi® OXY-Coat is 0.5-3%.

VISCOPOL™ 6191 by allnex is a low-foaming, fast-drying and anionic styrene acrylic copolymer emulsion. It exhibits excellent water and grease-resistance, excellent gloss and adhesion properties and has excellent mechanical shear stability. It also shows excellent pigment wetting and good block resistance coupled with wide solvent tolerance. VISCOPOL™ 6191 is particularly recommended for use in water-based flexographic & gravure printing inks, overprint lacquers and paper & board-coating applications. It is also highly recommended for use in the formulation of anti-corrosive metal primers. It has a shelf life of 12 months.

EBECRYL® 600 by allnex is a low VOC diacrylate ester of bisphenol A epoxy resin. It provides light color and fast cure response.

• Films cured via exposure to ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) possesses high surface hardness and gloss and excellent chemical resistance.
• It reduces energy consumption and exhibits low carbon foot print, good compatibility, low flammability and long potlife.
• It is a radiation curable, solvent- and tin free grade.
• EBECRYL® 600 is recommended for lithographic and screen inks, overprint varnishes and fast cure coatings.
• It is also used in coatings for paper, paperboard, wood, chipboard and rigid plastics.

Techpolymer™ EFC-208B by Sekisui Kasei can be used as a matting agent. Offers soft and smooth texture on coating surface. It is a crosslinked acrylic copolymer grade. It contains 50% biomass content and contributes in lowering the environmental loads. Its mean particle diameter is between 6.0-10.0 µm. Techpolymer™ EFC-208B is composed of polymer particles and can maintain the major properties as other Techpolymer™ lineup.

Lacper® 4507 by Wanhua Chemical is a self-crosslinking acrylic copolymer emulsion. It shows high transparancy, excellent in-can and dry-film clarity because of its small particle size.

• It exhibits good film hardness, fast drying speed, good sandability and excellent chemical resistance.
• It has good adhesion to a variety of substrates such as wood, plastics such as ABS, PC and PVC.
• Lacper® 4507 contains no APEO, formaldehyde and its derivative.
• This waterborne resin is recommended for interior, exterior, primer sealer, midcoat, basecoat, clearcoat, topcoat, wood and plastic applications.

SYLOID® MX 307 distributed by DKSH is a synthetic amorphous silica. It is an organically treated high porosity silica matting agent of medium particle size. It provides excellent surface appearance combined with high film clarity.

• It exhibits high matting efficiency, outstanding suspension behavior and easy incorporation & dispersion properties.
• It is used in furniture-, wood-, coil-, wood protective-, general industrial- coatings and decorative & trade sale paints.
• It has a shelf life of 12 months.
• SYLOID® MX 307 is available in Europe.

Bentone® 34 by Elementis acts as a rheological additive designed for low to intermediate polarity organic systems. It is an organic derivative of a bentonite clay. It prevents pigment settling during storage and syneresis in thixotropic systems.
