Product Applications

Tytan coupling agents can enhance the dispersion of inorganic fillers in polymer systems such as PP, PE, by modifying the surface of filler particles. The content of fillers can therefore be increased, saving the cost of polymer, while maintaining the mechanical property.

OBJECTIVES:

  • Study pH drift of and viscosity stability in a PVA gloss system using HASE thickener
  • Study Zinc Oxide stability
  • Study the dispersant-aid and color development characteristics
  • Study the affect of M-Amine-1 in development of wet adhesion and water sensitivity and compare with AMP-95

OBSEVATIONS:

  • For pH drift and viscosity stability, 3.5 LB per 100 Gallon of amines were added to a gloss PVA, containing DR-1 (R&H). Samples were placed in an oven at 130 degree F for four weeks.
  • M-Amine and AMP-95 were both tested as stability-aid agents in a stain-blocking acrylic primer and 100% acrylic exterior house paint. Samples were placed in oven at 130 degree for six weeks (the stain-blocking primer), and four weeks (the exterior house paint)
  • Dispersion and color development characteristics were evaluated in a 100% acrylic semi gloss. Two batches were prepared using 50 LB of yellow Oxide, 3 LB of amine, 6 LB of tamol-681, and 2 LB of CF-10 in grind. The third batch was prepared in the same manner using ammonia instead of amine. The same grind set-up was used for all batches containing M-Amine-1, ammonia, and AMP-95. Grinds were completed in 7 minutes at 2,500 RPM. All batches were evaluated for gloss development and colorflow characteristics.
  • A PVA and 100% acrylic semi gloss paint were applied on an aged alkyd panel, then allowed to dry two hours at room temperature, then, the panel was placed in a humidity chamber for 6 hours. The panel was evaluated for blisters

CONCLUSIONS:

  • M-Amine-1, in all tests, performed as well or better than AMP-95. Performance characteristics for pH drift and viscosity stability of MAmine- 1 are comparable to AMP-95. Zinc Oxide stability of MAmine- 1 is slightly better than AMP-95 in one acrylic and equal to it in the second acrylic.
  • Grind- aid and color development characteristics of M-Amine-1 are comparable with AMP-95. M-Amine-1 exhibits better early blister resistance when compared with AMP-95. Development of improved early blister resistance of paints containing M-Amine-1 indicates that in comparison to the paints which contain AMP 95 the white crystalline residue remaining after AMP 95 evaporates may cause initial water sensitivity problems.
