IMSIL® microcrystalline silica fillers are produced from an inert, naturally occurring alpha quartz with a unique grape-like morphology. Finer micronized grades are useful in formulating higher gloss paints and systems requiring controlled particle top size such as Industrial OEM topcoat coats and non-conductive inks. Intermediate size grades offer ideal and uniform gloss control for topcoats, coil coats and increased inter-coat adhesion between primers and topcoats. Coarser grades offer high solids loading with low viscosity,  texture, anti-skid  and abrasion resistance in industrial floor coatings and exterior deck coatings.

SNOBRITE® air floated kaolin is a natural ultrafine kaolin offering semi-reinforcing, good color quality, effective TiO2 spacing, and cost-effective rheology modifier with inherent or natural plasticity and thixotropy.

TYTAN™ TIPT/TNBT/TET/EHT process catalyst series are the world’s leading products of homogeneous esterification and transesterification catalyst to typical users in plasticizer, acrylate and methacrylate manufacturers. TYTAN™ AP series adhesion promoter is specially designed for flexographic and gravure printing ink for flexible packaging films to improve adhesion and heat stability. TYTAN™ CX series cross-linking agents are designed to impart a shear reversible or thixotropic structure to latex paint and dispersion paint. Other catalysts are designed for polyester esterification catalysts and polyurethane catalysts.

HIFILL® ground calcium carbonate fillers are produced from a uniquely occurring, high brightness calcite feedstock. Available in a range of particle distributions and packing configurations, HIFILL offers versatile filling options and cost effective performance in a broad range of liquid and powder coatings. With exceptional whiteness, HIFILL is ideally suited for use in brightly colored and contractor grade trade paints and masonry coatings. The low oil absorption of HIFILL can help maximize loading levels in either water or solvent based systems with only minimal impact upon viscosity.

DeMUL is a clear, colorless liquid that serves as an emulsifier for emulsifiable concentrates, microemulsions, concentrated emulsions, and oil dispersions. It has a saponification number of approximately 128, an acid number of maximum 1, and an iodine number of approximately 60 gI/100g.

Pergopak® organic matting agents and carriers are specialty products for the coatings, paint and agricultural industries. They deliver a good surface finish and soft feel effect that cannot be achieved with standard matting agents like silicas or waxes. For over 20 years, formulators have relied on Pergopak® to improve the rheology and performance of their coatings. In addition, Pergopak® is used as a carrier in the agricultural industry.

ASCOTRAN® products are carefully formulated using the latest technologies and are tested rigorously to ensure their effectiveness and reliability. Whether you need a temporary protection solution for your equipment during transportation or storage, or want to safeguard your metal components during manufacturing or assembly, ASCOTRAN® has a solution to meet your needs.

PPG INHIBISIL® silica anti-corrosion pigments are highly-efficient, calcium oxide-modified silica products designed to replace conventional chrome-based and other toxic anti-corrosion pigments. Engineered for use in thin-film polyester melamine (solvent-borne), urethane (solvent-borne), and epoxy (waterborne) primers. PPG INHIBISIL® anti-corrosion pigments are non-toxic, chemically inert,  and compatible with other anti-corrosion additives.  They also disperse easily and are highly resistant to over-grind.
