Under the brand family GENIOSIL®, WACKER offers organofunctional silanes and innovative silane modified polymers for bonding and sealing. Their most outstanding property is the fact that they combine environmental advantages with performance benefits.

METABLEN™ is the trade name of modifiers, which have been developed originally by Mitsubishi chemical, a world prominent manufacture of methyl methacrylate resins. Adding a small quantity of METABLEN™ to various resins improves and increases their impact strength and processability, and further improves the characteristics, the appearance and the productivity of their final products. *METABLEN™ is provided by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, a member of the Mitsubishi Chemical Group.

"Our additives and ingredients enhance manufacturing processes and the performance of products. Thomas Swan has developed a range of viscosity-reduction additives for the rubber processing and polymer industries, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits. Pepton® chemical peptisers catalyze the mastication of rubber, providing time, energy, cost and environmental benefits. The dibenzamido diphenyl disulphide (DBD) chemistry used to produce the active ingredient within Pepton® is widely considered by the rubber processing industry to be more environmentally acceptable than traditional pentachloro thiophenol based peptisers. Thomas Swan’s DBD is the only fully REACH registered chemical peptiser. A range of formulated Pepton® products is available, each having different concentrations of the active ingredient combined with a range of complementary proprietary additives that enhance peptising performance."

NatureFine products are finely micronized biodegradable waxes that impart lubricity with rub and abrasion resistance, and are ideal for high natural content coatings.

Santicizer® Plasticizers offer all the benefits of high solvating plasticizers including compatibility in multiple polymer systems such as Polysulfide, PVC and Polyurethane. Because of their high efficiency, less energy is required to fuse PVC formulations. These materials are well suited for plastisol applications, but can easily be used in almost any polymer system that requires additional flexibility and softness.

Evonik is one of the leading producers of nanostructured metal oxides. These are highly pure aluminum oxides or titanium dioxides. Evonik's portfolio also consists of a growing range of hydrophobic and mixed oxides grades. AEROXIDE® fumed titanium dioxide and aluminum oxide products are applied in a wide range of markets and applications such as anti-blocking agent in PET films and heat stabilizer in silicone rubber. Evonik's experienced global Applied Technology team keeps developing new applications in close collaboration with customers.

MERPOL® is an alcohol phosphate providing low foam, wetting and emulsification

MOULEX® additives improve and allow the processing of Composites, Rubber (Profiles, tires, etc.), thermoplastics and wood (Panels, paper impregnation, etc.).

The versatile oil with helath benefits functions as solubilizer, clouding agent, excipient and wetting agent.MASESTER™ Functional Products are: PHO-free (Partially Hydrogenated Oil), non-GMO and nonallergenic derived from sustainable palm oil grown within Musim Mas plantations.All products are HALAL and KOSHER certified.

Unique combinations of low molecular weight fatty waxes on a backbone of polyethylene. Polysilk is designed to bloom and provide excellent surface slip without the use of silicone. These additives give excellent tape release and anti-blocking with scuff and mar resistance in solvent and water based systems. Polysilk 14 contains REACH compliant PTFE for added toughness and slip.

Unique composites of polyethylene waxes and REACH compliant PTFE that provide a high degree of surface lubricity, abrasion resistance, and film toughness. These proprietary formulations offer a synergistic combination of properties for superior formulation flexibility in inks, paints, and coatings. Polyfluo 900 is an LDPE/PTFE composite fortified with ceramic beads for improved burnish and abrasion resistance. Polyfluo 523AL is an HDPE/PTFE composite reinforced with alumina nanopowder for maximum scratch, mar, and scuff resistance.

Evonik is the inventor of AEROSIL® fumed silica, which is a synthetic fumed silica that is produced by flame hydrolysis. For over 70 years AEROSIL® has proven to enhance performance in many markets and applications. Today Evonik's AEROSIL® portfolio covers a broad range of surface areas, as well as very different surface chemistries. Also, AEROSIL® does not get tired in finding new markets, applications and effects. AEROSIL® is invented to improve.

Endex 1042™ is a chemical foaming agent which utilizes innovative technology to produce superior quality foamed products. It has a high gas yield and the fast response time typical of exothermic chemical foaming agents, and generates fine, closed-cell foams, which result in moldings and extrusions of high quality.

Luwax® range comprises polyethylene waxes, ethylene copolymer waxes, and oxidized polyethylene waxes that help in maximizing the efficiency of pigment use. Depending on the specification for the final product, waxes can increase color strength, lower the quantity of pigment required, or reduce the shear force needed. They also act as lubricants during the molding or extrusion of final goods and are used during the production of pigment masterbatches and compounds as well as for the processing of PVC and polyolefins.
