Functions:Defoamer
Chemical Family:Silicones
End Uses:Gravure Ink, Solventborne Ink, Solventborne Coating, Flexography Ink
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Nitrocellulose

ADD-2026 is a silicone-based foam control additive for solvent-based coatings. ADD-2026 prevents the entrapment of air during processing steps such as dispersion & pumping. ADD-2026 reduces the accumulation of foam in the ink pan or reservoir during the printing process.

ADD 2525

Functions:Anti-Foaming Agent, Defoamer
Chemical Family:Silicones
End Uses:Waterborne Ink, Varnishes, Waterborne Coating
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Acrylics

ADD-2525 is a highly compatible silicone-based foam control additive specially formulated in emulsion form. It is particularly designed for water- and glycol-based pigment concentrates and universal colorants as well as water-based inks. ADD-2525 also finds use in low-PVC emulsion paints (glossy) and water-based clear varnishes.

ADD 2722

Chemical Family:Silicones
Functions:Anti-Foaming Agent, Leveling Agent, Deaerator
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Polyurethanes (PU), Epoxies (EP)
End Uses:Solventless & High Solids Coating, Epoxy Coating

ADD-2722 is a silicone-based anti-foam and de-aeration agent for solvent-free coatings and composite. ADD-2722 produces rapid de-aeration of solvent-free epoxy and polyurethane compounds so that foam and blister-free self leveling coatings can be produced. It acts as a leveling agent providing a smooth surface to the coating.

ADD 2524

Functions:Defoamer
Chemical Family:Silicones
End Uses:Waterborne Coating, Waterborne Adhesive
Solid Content:55.0 - 55.0 %

ADD-2524 is a silicon based highly efficient defoamer.

ADD 2730

Functions:Anti-Foaming Agent, Leveling Agent
Chemical Family:Silicones
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Polyurethanes (PU), Epoxies (EP)
End Uses:Solventless & High Solids Coating, Solventborne Coating, Epoxy Coating, 2K (2 component) Coating

Silicone-based anti-foam and de-aeration agent for solvent-free coatings and composite. ADD-2730 produces rapid de-aeration of solvent-free epoxy and polyurethane compounds so that foam and blister-free self-leveling coatings can be produced. It acts as a leveling agent providing a smooth surface to the coating.

ADD 2020

Functions:Defoamer
End Uses:Solventborne Ink, Flexography Ink, Gravure Ink, Epoxy Coating, Solventborne Coating
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Nitrocellulose, Acrylics
Labeling Claims:Silicone-free

ADD-2020 is a silicone-free defoamer for solvent-based coatings, solvent-based printing inks and composite to prevent foam formation during production, filling and application. ADD-2020 displays spontaneous defoaming properties and demonstrates no negative influence on inter-coat adhesion when overcoated. Due to its strong incompatibility (better defoaming properties), the influence upon the transparency of clear systems and upon cratering must be evaluated. When used in the ink industry, it reduces the accumulation of foam in the ink pan or reservoir during the printing process.

ADD 2021

Functions:Defoamer
End Uses:Solventborne Coating, Screen Printing Ink, Solventborne Ink, Varnishes, Flexography Ink, Radiation Curable Ink, Gravure Ink
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Acrylics, Nitrocellulose, Alkyds, Polyurethanes (PU)
Labeling Claims:Silicone-free

ADD-2021 is a silicone-free defoamer with leveling properties for various solvent-based resin systems. ADD-2021 functions well during the application of paints and lacquers, and also prevents the entrapment of air during processing steps such as stirring and pumping. ADD-2021 can be used in coatings and printing inks.

ADD 2504

Functions:Defoamer
End Uses:Varnishes, Waterborne Coating, Waterborne Ink
Labeling Claims:Silicone-free

ADD-2504 is a high performance liquid defoamer for aqueos coating and ink formulations. It is very suitable for food packaging inks, coatings & varnishes. ADD-2504 fulfill the Swiss Ordinance requirements, all ingredients used are listed in Part A of Annex 6.

ADD 2723

Chemical Family:Silicones
Functions:Deaerator, Leveling Agent
Compatible Polymers & Resins:Epoxies (EP), Polyurethanes (PU)
End Uses:Solventless & High Solids Coating, Epoxy Coating

ADD-2723 has been developed to produce rapid de-aeration of solvent-free polyurethane and epoxy compounds used in flooring application, so that foam and blister-free self leveling coatings can be produced. ADD-2723 acts as a leveling agent, giving a smooth surface to the coating. On the other hand, ADD-2723 presents the advantage of low odor.
