Industrial Coatings

Afcona - 5251 is a non-ionic dispersant formulated for the deflocculation of transparent iron oxides.

Afcona - 2590 is an effective defoamer for general industrial paints, wood coatings, etc. It can prevent the formation and destroy the foams under the surface, reducing the chances of cratering and fish eyes.

Afcona - 3700 is a wetting, leveling, and flow control agent for solvent-free and solvent-based coatings with excellent anti-crater properties.

Cardolite® Ultra LITE 513 is a very light-colored, low-viscosity, monofunctional epoxy reactive diluent designed for coatings, adhesives, and other epoxy applications. The long hydrophobic aliphatic side chain of cardanol gives this product a very low viscosity and provides excellent water resistance, flexibility, and thermal shock resistance. High-viscosity solvent or solvent-free formulations can achieve enhanced workability and higher solids without sacrificing other performance properties using this product.

Cardolite® NX-5594 is a modified tert-butyl phenol-free and low-viscosity phenalkamine curing agent suitable for formulating high-solids and solvent-free epoxy systems for heavy-duty and pipe coatings, flooring applications, adhesives, and mortars. This product cures very fast, even at lower temperatures, and provides excellent cathodic disbondment performance. NX-5594 can also be used as an accelerator or co-curing for both amine- and polyamide-based hardeners.

Afcona - 5220 is an anionic wetting and dispersing additive specifically designed for inorganic pigments, primarily for TiO2 and extenders.

Afcona - 4550 is a high molecular weight, pH-independent polymeric dispersant designed for the deflocculation of pigments in water-based decorative and industrial paints.

Afcona - 4595 is a high molecular weight polymeric dispersant utilized for the deflocculation of pigments in water-based decorative and industrial paints.

ASCOTRAN® H14 is a multi-metal substrate renowned for its high water-resistance properties.

ASCONIUM® 141S1 is a liquid anticorrosion additive for metal coatings, replacing mineral anticorrosion pigments or enhancing their performance in waterborne or solvent borne metal coatings. It acts as a hydrophobic agent, improving dry-film's water resistance.

Pangel® B5 is an effective additive utilized in crumb rubber-modified asphalt applications. Its inclusion results in homogeneous mixes, reducing variations in properties such as penetration, softening point, and solid content, particularly after dissolving bitumen in solvents like Tetrahydrofuran. This additive ensures the stability of asphalt crumb rubber mixes even after storage at elevated temperatures, effectively preventing settling issues.

Cardolite® Lite 2100 is a low color and low viscosity cashew nutshell liquid modified hydrocarbon resin recommended as an epoxy modifier for use in adhesives, coatings, and tar replacement. It enables high solids and solvent-free formulations, improves system compatibility for better film formation and protective performance, and provides excellent water, moisture, and corrosion resistance.

ASCOTRAN® H30 is a ready-to-use liquid flash-rust inhibitor for any waterborne coating. It also serves as a corrosion inhibitor for metal packaging protection.
