TYTAN™ TNBT is a highly reactive primary titanate that hydrolyzes immediately upon contact with moisture. It is primarily used as a catalyst for esterification, transesterification, and olefin polymerization, and is also highly suitable as an adhesion-promoting and cross-linking agent for hydroxylic compounds or heat- and corrosion-resistant coatings. TYTAN™ TNBT can also be used as a moisture scavenger to extend the shelf life of moisture-sensitive, high-viscosity products. It can only be added to solvent-based products.

Product Highligjts

Borica is committed to providing the chemical industry with a complete range of high performance catalysts delivering to your site through our global logistic network. Our catalysts are supplied to the world's manufacturers of:

Acrylates and Methacrylates:

TYTAN™ titanates increase alcohol conversion and avoid undesirable side products.

Plasticizers and Polyester Polyol:

TYTAN™ titanates can increase production of phthalates, adipates and trimellitates by up to 50% vs. conventional acid systems.

Replacement of Tin Catalyst:

  • Low cycle time
  • Low odor and low color due to better reaction selectivity
  • Easy removal of catalyst through hydrolysis and lower filtration time
  • Easy recycling of excessive ester or alcohol
  • No heavy metals, omission of product washing and very low COD to production effluent
  • Increased thermal stability
