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.

Baxxodur® curing agents are available as cycloaliphatic amines and as polyether amines. They are used as hardeners in the formulation of polyurethane composites. Depending on the requirements BTC’s curing agents allow long work-life (1-2 days), fast cure at elevated temperatures (100 – 180°C), excellent high temperature properties and chemical resistance, and good adhesion on metals.

Joncryl® styrene acrylic resins and emulsions are the key components of high performance inks and coatings. Water-based inks and coatings formulated with Joncryl® products are a good sustainable, consistent quality alternative to solvent-based products. The Joncryl® range contains acrylic and styrene-acrylic RC emulsions, acrylic colloidals, crosslinking agents, polyethylene waxes for water-based ink & overprint varnish. Joncryl® ECO is a product range of glycol-ether-free and food-contact compliant dispersions. Joncryl® ECO types are meeting the stringent demands of food and packaging applications, such as for the tobacco and the confectionary markets.

Dispex® dispersing agents are used to wet and stabilize pigments and other particles in pigmented coatings. For formulators they represent an essential component as they provide color strength, gloss, viscosity, stability and prevent sedimentation of particles. They find application in automotive & industrial coatings, furniture & floorings coatings, inks & printing, exterior & interior coatings, wood & trim coatings, and compsites. Additives like our Dispex® range of dispersing agents are used to stabilize the filler distribution within paints and coatings. For paint producers, they represent an essential component as they provide. They can also be used as agrochemical additives (dispersants) for seed treament.

Irganox® performance additives are used as antioxidants for automotive & industrial coatings. Hindered phenolic (primary AO) deactivate free radicals formed during thermal oxidation. They are multipurpose for broad temperature ranges and are mostly used to increase long term thermal stability. Irganox® types are antioxidants which help extend the life and improve the performance of industrial and engine lubricants. The manufacturing industry benefits from longer equipment life and fewer maintenance shutdowns. Automotive lubricants benefit from longer drain intervals and improved fuel economy. Many of our antioxidants are FDA regulated to formulate incidental food contact lubricants and greases for use in food-handling and manufacturing equipment.

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.

Hydropalat® from BTC types are used as wetting agents and surface modifiers. They provide a formulation with adequate wetting properties, enhance different component compatibility and/or improve the appearance of a coated surface in furniture & floorings coatings, automotive & industrial coatings, inks & printing applications.

Basonat® polyisocyanates are crosslinkers for two-component Polyurethane coatings for the automotive and industrial coatings industry. Basonat® harderners have an influence on the curing time of the systems.
