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.

Techpolymer™ MBX-5 by Sekisui Kasei is a matting agent. It is a cross-linked methyl methacrylate and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate copolymer grade. Offers good mechanical- and solvent resistance. It has mean particle diameter between 4.0-6.0 µm. Techpolymer™ MBX-5 is recommended for use in plastic-, automotive interior-, wood- and coil coating.

Techpolymer™ EFC-215B by Sekisui Kasei can be used as a matting agent. Provides soft and smooth texture on coating surface. It is acrylic copolymer grade and contains 50% biomass content. Its mean particle diameter is between 12.0-18.0 µm. Techpolymer™ EFC-215B is composed of cross-linked polymer particles and can maintain the major properties as other Techpolymer™ lineup while it contributes to lowering the environmental loads.

Techpolymer™ MB30X-20 by Sekisui Kasei acts as a matting agent. Provides better mechanical- and solvent resistance than Techpolymer™ MBX grade. It is a highly cross-linked grade and its mean particle diameter is between 15.0-21.0 µm. It is a copolymer of methyl methacrylate and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate. Techpolymer™ MB30X-20 is suitable for many kind of applications such as plastic-, automotive interior-, wood- and coil coating.

AHA1208 distributed by DKSH acts as a texturing agent. It is an organic-metallic compound, which can be applicable to any powder coatings to impart special texture finishes such as wrinkle, reticulated, vein, embossed and grained appearance (“frosted glass”).

• Recommended dosage level is 1-2%.
• AHA1208 has a shelf life of 3 years.
• It is available in Canada.

Techpolymer™ BM30X-5 by Sekisui Kasei is a matting agent. It is softer than standard PMMA and offers smooth and soft texture on coating surface. It is a highly cross-linked copolymer of butyl methacrylate and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate. Its mean particle diameter is between 3.5-6.5 µm. Techpolymer™ BM30X-5 is used for many kind of applications such as plastic-, automotive interior-, wood- and coil coating.

Techpolymer™ MBP-8 by Sekisui Kasei is a matting agent. It is expected to give much better matting than other PMMA because of its shape. It is a cross-linked copolymer of methyl methacrylate and ethyleneglycol dimethacrylateporous. Its mean particle diameter is between 6.0-10.0 µm. Techpolymer™ MBP-8 is used for many kind of applications such as plastic-, automotive interior-, wood- and coil coating.
