UV AlIStar S is for absorbing and non-absorbing printing substrates in sheetfed

We deal with Tackifiers based on Rosin, Rosin Derivatives and Petroleum Resins.

The SILRES® brand comprises a wide range of silicones for coatings, paints and construction applications. The portfolio has been developed and continuously improved since the 1950's when the first silicone resins for building protection originated in WACKER laboratories. It features not only time-tested and innovative products, but also tailored solutions for a host of applications, climates and substrates. And it is supported by a range of extensive services available from our technical centers worldwide which provide further customization and customer-specific options.

ErgaFlex™ is a UV-cure flexographic ink series for printing on paper, board, film, tag & label substrates. ErgaFlex MP 1000 UV-cure flexo ink is primarily intended for use with fine-screen Anilox rollers in the 800-1200 lpi range. Use ErgaFlex™ for tag & label printing. Kerley Ink has designed ErgaFlex™ inks to be very stable in-fountain, so press operators will spend less time checking and adjusting ink to concentrate on printing product. ErgaFlex is relatively free of mineral fillers like clay extenders, so color strength and print fidelity are optimized. Scuff resistance and holdout is usually excellent, and ErgaFlex inks will often pass tape pull tests where other brands will not.

ARDYME is a derivative of rosin showing a higher softening point and acid value. It is a derivative of a natural resin, rosin, containing dimerized resin acidsThis can be used for hot melt adhesives and soldering flux.

Foral resin is the pentaerythritol ester of highly-hydrogenated, refined rosin.

Tinuvin® light stabilizers show best performances regarding their thermal stability, substrate compatibility, volatility, absorption range, or regulatory classification as needed. BTC’s Tinuvin® light stabilizers provide effective protection against UV absorption for inks and printing.

Ceno Technologies supply clean and graded cenospheres which have unusually high compressive strength and can easily handle pressures of 4,000 psi without breakage. This immense strength extends their versatility by providing increased breakage resistance during mixing, processing and application. Their light gray color consistency will always give you the results you expect, as well as delivering lower tint costs.

Tamanol is an environmentally friendly water-based (solvent-free) emulsion tackifier. It is the industry's first environmentally friendly water-based (solvent-free) emulsion tackifier that can be used as an additive in an adhesive to increase its adhesion. This can be used with olefin polymers that inherently have poor adhesive properties to make them stickier. It is used for various types of polymers, such as acrylic, EVA, chloroprene and rubber-based polymers.

Acronal® is a range water-based emulsions. Acronal® range for exterior paints covers styrene and pure acrylics which offer a very high durability against the influence of weathering. Acronal® range for wood and trim paints offer a very high durability against the influence of weathering. In addition, our styrene acrylics have an outstanding chemical resistance, which is very important for exterior applications. BTC’s range of Acronal® dispersions covers both selfcrosslinking and non selfcrosslinking dispersions. BTC’s range of Acronal® types give decorative foils, filters and wallpaper excellent mechanical properties. In air and oil filters for the automotive industry they improve durability and performance. In high-quality decorative paper foil, our binders ensure a high level of stability of the bonded fibers. To abrasives our binders ensure the abrasives flexibility and reduce abrasive particle wear. BTC’s Acronal® types for natural fibers are acrylic dispersions. BTC’s range of Acronal® types give nonwovens made of synthetic fibers their exceptional and different functional properties.

Staybelite is the glycerol ester of partially hydrogenated wood rosin, specially processed for superior taste and odor characteristics.

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.

Texicryl® emulsion used to enhance the workability and technical performance of products being supplied into the building and decoration market.A diverse range of thickeners and binders for the Artist Colors market. It can also be used in water-based styrene acrylic emulsion polymers and solid resins specifically developed for graphic art applications, as a rheology modifiers for Hand Cleanser applications.With over 60 years’ experience, our range of PVA / acrylic binders and inverse emulsion thickeners deliver high performance in textile and furnishing products.

SYNPRINT is based on our proprietary self-crosslinking technology. This technology combines two different crosslinking mechanisms on the same polymer backbone, substantially increasing the chemical resistance, water resistance and adhesion to multiple substrates. This technology was designed for the self- crosslinking mechanism to fully cure at room temperature while maintaining long-term shelf stability.

Often, fillers have to meet very special requirements. In such cases not only good dispersion characteristics are of importance, but also mechanical and dynamic properties of the final products. Improved electrical insulation resistance, better aging and fluid resistance in many materials and improved anticorrosion properties have a crucial role to play in many areas. At Hoffmann Mineral, we developed Aktisil to meet such customer requirements. This special filler is made by treating the surface of Neuburg Siliceous Earth with chemical agents, mostly silanes. The reaction by-products (e.g. alcohol) formed during the manufacture of the different products of Aktisil are largely removed right away during the process. The coupling reaction fixes the silane to the surface of the filler. Any undesirable side-effects that can occur during mixing by direct addition of the silane are virtually eliminated. So the customer can choose from a complete product range of many different types of Aktisil. This is the result of many years of in-house experience and of close cooperation with customers. Know-how for users’ benefit.
