Products in Decorative Paints: Water Repellent

Loxanol® MI 6840 is a highly concentrated aqueous dispersion of paraffin wax designed to increase the hydrophobicity of water-based exterior coatings. It is effective in enhancing the hydrophobic properties of water-based exterior coatings and textured finishes.

Michem® Emulsion 36840 improves water resistance, mar resistance and anti-block properties in paints and coatings.

euroMinerals inzeo has innovative qualities made of volcanic rock – natural clinoptilolite-zeolite and a multi-functional product. inzeo is a natural, hydrated aluminosilicate. Due to its porous structure (containing many cavities and canals in the meso and macro scale), it possesses a large inner surface with excellent and specific ion substitution, adsorption, and hydration capacities. Clinoptilolite-zeolites are already successfully used in many different areas today. Today approximately 50 natural zeolites are known, that differ considerably in application and quality. Zeolite-clinoptilolite is processed by euro Minerals with a high purity level of about 85%.

Michem® Lube 270R provides excellent water and block resistance in paint and coating formulations. This product is useful for long term water bead and for water repellency on wood as well as a tire dressing and buffability for auto care.

Silblock™ F Polysiloxane Emulsion is a waterborne, solvent-free, polysiloxane additive for use in waterborne paint formulations to enhance performance and durability. It is an excellent candidate to consider for use in exterior and interior architectural paints. Paints containing Silblock F emulsion typically demonstrate improved resistance to UV, water, alkali and efflorescence. Additionally, durability of color retention and water resistance can be extended by 50% or more. Silblock F emulsion can be added during paint manufacturing or premixed with the existing binder emulsion.

Michem® Lube 190 - A wax emulsion provides mar, rub, block, and scratch resistance, and improved water resistance in coatings and graphic arts formulations.

LUBA-print® 942/P is a Wax dispersion / Wachsdispersion. It is used as waterbased paints and stains to improve slip, antiblocking and water resistance, brushing paints for paper and paperboard to improve hydrophobicity and antiblocking properties.

METOLAT N 50 is an aqueous dispersion of hydrophobic compounds which is easy to emulsify in water. METOLAT N 50 leads to an extension of the open-time of waterbased emulsion paints.

Michem® Lube 182 - A wax emulsion provides slip, release, and anti-block properties in wood coatings and other applications and may be blended with synthetic and natural lattices. It also provides mar and scratch resistance and water repellency in varnishes and other coatings.
