Tyzor® NPT

Tetra-n-propyl titanate with 100% active content. Acts as a lewis acid catalyst in processes such as esterification, transesterification, condensation and addition. Can also be used as a binder or cross-linker for –OH or –COOH functional polymers and other binders in paints. It can also be used to promote adhesion and cross-linking of polymers, or to form polymeric titanium dioxide layers used as binders or coatings. Its typical reaction products include polyolefins, (meth)acrylic esters, polyester, plasticizer, various esters and polyurethanes. Its benefits include elimination of by-products, increased yield, easy work-up, low catalyst concentration and low toxicity. It increases surface hardness, promotes adhesion, improves resistance to heat, chemicals, corrosion and scratches, adds iridescence or enhances light reflection. It is used in ziegler-natta catalysts for olefin polymerization. It is useful as a binder. Also used in pigments, fillers, glass- and metal coatings.
