ADD-3772 is a silicone-free additive suitable for aqueous and non-aqueous systems. It is designed to reduce the surface tension of various resin systems at substrate interface, which will improve substrate wetting and leveling; and prevent formation of craters without stabilizing foam. ADD-3772 is suitable for coatings and printing inks.

ADD-3230 is a silicone-based surface additive to improve surface properties in all solvent-based, solvent-free and aqueous systems. It is specially used in systems in which solvent-free additives are requested or where a requirement for a special solvent exists. ADD-3230 can be used in coatings and printing inks.

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-3777 is a silicone-free additive having high molecular weight and very broad compatibility. It is designed to reduce the surface tension of various resin systems at substrate interface, which will improve substrate wetting and leveling and prevent formation of craters without stabilizing foam. The additive provides “long wave” leveling performance and increases gloss of the coating system and does not cause any inter-coat adhesion problems. It is highly effective in the transportation coatings when combined with the silicone-based additive ADD-3031. ADD-3777 is suitable for coatings and printing inks.

ADD-5765 is a wetting and dispersing additive for enhancing the dispersion of inorganic pigments and stabilizing the suspension of special effect pigments in solvent-based media. It is designed to prevent flooding and floating and hard sedimentation. ADD-5765 can be used in coatings and printing inks.

ADD-5054 is an electro-neutral wetting and dispersing additive to improve the wetting of pigment surfaces and organically treated Bentonites and to reduce the time required for the grinding process. ADD-5054 is suitable for architectural paints. It creates thixotropy and therefore prevents flooding, floating and settling of the pigments and reduces sagging.

ADD-3236 is a silicone surface additive with defoaming properties to improve the surface properties of coatings, with particular emphasis upon leveling, it increases surface slip and thus improves scratch and mar- resistance. ADD-3236 is a heat resistant due to the alkyl-modification, which shows no thermal decomposition at high temperatures in baking systems such as coil coatings (up to 280°C for 15 minutes).

ADD-5066 is a wetting and dispersing additive for enhancing the dispersion of inorganic pigments. It is designed to prevent flooding and floating and hard sedimentation.

ADD-2720 is a silicone-free anti-foam that supports the quick de-aeration of thermosetting resin systems so that foam and blister-free self leveling compounds and laminates can be processed. ADD-2720 demonstrates no negative influence on inter-coat adhesion when overcoated. Additionally, it acts as an air release and leveling additive. It is designed for use in coatings, printing inks and composite. If used in conjunction with ADD-5044 or ADD-5066 in pigmented compounds, lower viscosity results can be achieved, thereby aiding the air release properties.

ADD-5065 is a wetting and dispersing additive for enhancing the dispersion of inorganic pigments and stabilizing the suspension of special effect pigments in solvent-based media. It is designed to prevent flooding and floating and hard sedimentation. ADD-5065 can be used in coatings and printing inks.

ADD-3231 is a silicone-based surface additive to improve surface properties in all solvent-based medium- to high-polar systems. It is specially used in systems in which solvent-free additives are requested or where a requirement for a special solvent exists. ADD-3231 can be used in coatings and printing inks.

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-3031 is a silicone surface additive to provide good substrate wetting of critical substrates and excellent anti-cratering by reduction of surface tension of the coating systems. It also improves surface slip, scratch resistance and anti-blocking properties. ADD-3031 is a heat resistant silicone additive, which shows no thermal decomposition at temperatures between 150°C and 230°C. Due to its low surface tension, it prevents floating of pigments, Bénard cells and pinholing. It is suitable for coatings and printing inks.

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-3239 is a silicone-based leveling additive with defoaming properties. It improves the surface properties of solventbased and solvent-free coatings with particular emphasis upon leveling. With a slight influence on surface tension, ADD-3239 can impart defoaming properties to the system. It is soluble in aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, esters and ketones but insoluble in water. Sometimes it is necessary to dilute this 100% active material with a compatible solvent to improve its compatibility in a particular system. ADD-3239 is suitable for coatings and composite.

ADD-5071 helps to prevent interfacial tension between the hydrophilic pigments/extenders and the binders. This results in; reduced dispersion time, stabilization of the pigment dispersion, decreased flooding of pigments, prevention of hard sedimentation.
