Triol Monomers for Coatings and Inks

Capa® 3091 by Ingevity is a polyester triol terminated by primary hydroxyl groups. It is recommended as a polyol for CASE (coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers) applications, particularly for enhancing one-component (1K) and two-component (2K) coatings.

• It offers improved processing characteristics, reduces volatile organic compound (VOC) content, and enhances wetting properties.
• It improves appearance and lightfastness.
• When blended with other resins, the aliphatic backbones of Capa polymers support an increase in gloss and resistance to discoloration over time.
• Additionally, Capa® 3091 is compatible with various chemistries, including acrylics, polyethers, polyesters, polycarbonates, and epoxy systems.

Capa® 3050 by Ingevity is a low molecular weight polyester triol terminated by primary hydroxyl groups. It is suitable for producing polyurethane surface coatings, especially for clear, light-stable applications, and for coatings that require flexible and tough surface characteristics.

• It improves appearance and lightfastness in two component (2K) coatings.
• When blended with other resins, the aliphatic backbones of Capa polymers support an increase in gloss and resistance to discoloration over time.
• Capa® 3050 is suitable for high solid coatings where high cross-linking density are required.

Poly-G® 83-34 by Monument Chemical is a polyether triol. It is a polyol. Its average molecular weight is 4500.

Poly-G® 85-29 by Monument Chemical is a polyether triol. It is a polyol. Its average molecualr weight is 6500.

THEIC by Keeneyes Industrial is derived from cyanuric acid (1, 3, 5-triazine-2, 4, 6-triol) which is a cyclic trimer. It is usually a white, odorless solid. THEIC is used as a raw material for synthetic resins.

Poly-G® 30-112 by Monument Chemical is Polyether triol. It is a polyol. Poly-G® 30-112 average molecular weight is 1500.

TRIMET® TME Trimethylolethane by GEO Specialty Chemicals is a high performance polyol containing three primary hydroxyl groups. Used in alkyd and polyester resin synthesis to improve resistance to heat, light, hydrolysis and oxidation.

Sovermol® 1014 by BASF is a natural-oil-based aliphatic triol polyether polyol. It is solvent-free and its raw materials are registered in EU-Directive 2002/72/EG resp. 2007/19/EC as amended.

• Possesses good gloss development and good pigment wetting characteristics.
• It shows soft elastic performance.
• Sovermol® 1014 is listed in EINECS, TSCA, DSL, AICS, and IECSC.

Multranol® 3901 by Covestro is a 6,000-molecular-weight polyoxypropylene triol specially modified with ethylene oxide. It is a clear viscous liquid and is slightly hygroscopic and may absorb water.

Multranol® 3900 by Covestro is a 4800-molecular-weight polyoxypropylene triol specially modified with ethylene oxide. It is a clear viscous liquid and is slightly hygroscopic and may absorb water. The terminal end-groups have a high percentage of primary hydroxyl end-groups, giving it a relatively high rate of reactivity with isocyanates. Multranol® 3900 is compatible with most polyether polyols and can be blended with other diols, triols, and polymer polyols to achieve desirable modifications of product properties.
