Issue 44, 2013 - Highlights of CHINACOAT

At the 18th edition of CHINACOINTRADE on November 20~22, WACKER and Clariant will be presenting innovative solutions
.

◆WACKER VINNACOAT?LL 8100 IS A NEW SURFACE COATING RESIN BASED ON STYRENE-OLEFIN COPOLYMER WITH CARBOXYL FUNCTIONAL GROUPS, WHICH IS PARTICULARLY SUITABLE AS A RESIN BINDER FOR HEAT-SEALING FOOD PACKAGING INKS, WHICH NOT ONLY GIVES PRODUCTS HIGH TOUGHNESS AND PERMANENT FLEXIBILITY, BUT ALSO ENABLES NON-POLAR POLYMERS SUCH AS POLYSTYRENE, POLYPROPYLENE AND POLYETHYLENE TO HAVE HEAT SEALING PROPERTIES
.
At the same time, the carboxyl functional group also ensures that the ink has excellent adhesion to metal surfaces such as aluminum, which can achieve effective sealing
of aluminum foil and non-polar plastics.
In addition, this thermoplastic resin base has minimal expansion when exposed to water and is extremely resistant to a wide range of liquid media
.
Coupled with its inherent elasticity, the polymer does not require additional plasticizers
throughout the formulation process.

Silicone coatings based on SILRESÖS BS are advanced exterior coating systems that combine the advantages of inorganic and organic coatings, including excellent breathability, extremely low water absorption and long service life, and are environmentally innovative raw materials for the production of water-repellent building coatings, building chemicals and building materials
.

VINNAPAS?EF 818 is an alkylphenol ethoxylate-free water-based emulsion that is ideal for formulating coatings
with low VOC content (<5g/l).
Its combination of excellent scrub resistance, early water resistance and high price/performance ratio makes it an alternative to
many copolymer technologies such as ethylene-acrylic and styrene-acrylic.

VINNAPAS?EZ 3010 is an aqueous emulsion of vinyl acetate-ethylene copolymer with excellent pigment bonding properties, no solvents and plasticizers, and no alkylphenol ethoxylates for its production, making it ideal for
formulating low VOC coatings.

◆Clariant's Colanyl 100-CN waterborne pigment preparation series is an alkylphenol ethoxylate- and resin-free pigment preparation
.
They are based on non-ionic and/or anionic wetting and dispersing additives, can be used for the coloring of varnishes and white lacquers, have good rheological properties, can be used for manual or machine tinting where precise dosing is required, and are compatible
with base paints.
In addition, this pigment preparation has excellent
protection against crusting and sedimentation.

Flame retardants for intumescent fire retardants are the ideal combination
of excellent appearance and excellent fire performance.
The ammonium polyphosphate type Exolit?AP series products have zero release
during the processing stage.
When used with most adhesives on the market, this product is easily dispersible
in coating formulations.
In the event of a fire, Exolit products significantly reduce the corrosiveness and concentration
of smoke.

High performance UV absorber Hostavin?3330 disp.
XP opens up new ways
for coating manufacturers to improve the durability and UV protection of waterborne coatings.
As a triazine class of highly concentrated dispersions, it can help waterborne coatings achieve the performance
of traditional solventborne coatings at a lower cost.
In addition, compared with traditional HALS products, the toxicity of this product has been greatly improved and is no longer included in the category of
dangerous goods.

In addition, Clariant will be showcasing Ceridust 8090 TP,
a new dispersible pigment and renewable wax for the wood paint market.
