Brands

Dispex® dispersing agents for water-based systems and universal pigment concentrates offer outstanding viscosity reduction, increased color intensity and exceptional hiding power.

Loxanol® film-forming and coalescing agents, open-time prolongers and plasticizers are designed for low-VOC and sustainable raw materials.

Laromer® is used across automotive & transportation, building & construction, consumer goods, industrial, paints & coatings, and printing & packaging markets.

Attagel® attapulgite rheology modifiers offer a wide range of performance benefits in many liquid systems and are available in sizes ranging from fine powders to coarse granules. These thickeners and suspending agents provide easy dispersion, formulating latitude and long-term stability.

Sovermol® line of natural-oil polyols, derived from renewable raw materials like rapeseed oil and castor oil, typically contains 80-100% bio-content. These products offer excellent resistance to hydrolysis, chemicals, UV degradation, and long-term weathering performance. These properties allow for a reduced carbon footprint both within the coating formulation and in the long-lasting performance of the finished coating.

Hydropalat® wetting agents offer outstanding substrate-wetting, colorant-compatibilizing, flow-control, slip-control and anti-mar agents for water-based formulations.

Basonat® is a versatile product serving multiple markets including automotive & transportation, building & construction, consumer goods, and paints & coatings.

R+D Starvis® is used in building and construction for building envelope and roofing applications, including EIFS, insulation, shingles, and tiles.

Lupasol® Polymers for the Home Care and I&I Industry and for Formulation Technologies

Foamaster® mineral oil defoamers for water-based systems deliver a perfect balance between excellent foam suppression, micro-foam removal, high compatibility, long-term efficiency, easy handling and environmental compliance.

Lignostab® is used across the automotive & transportation, building & construction, consumer goods, and paints & coatings markets.

Irgastab® is used across the building & construction, consumer goods, industrial, and paints & coatings markets.

FoamStar® defoamers Award-winning technology based on a hyper-branched polymer with a 3-dimensional star-shaped structure. Unlike conventional mineral oil and silicone defoamers, our FoamStar® technology breaks down foam on a molecular level.

ULTRASON® is especially designed for applications that require high heat resistance ‒ it always keeps stiffness and dimensional stability even when used at very high temperatures. Its extraordinary property profile allows all ULTRASON® grades to be molded into high-quality, highly stressed parts for high-performance applications in a lot of industries.

Rheovis® additives encompass a broad portfolio of synthetic rheology modifiers designed for aqueous systems, including non-ionic associative (HEUR / HMPE), anionic associative (HASE) and non-associative anionic (ASE) technologies. Each product class has its own properties and applications to enable formulators to achieve their desired rheology profile with all types of resins. RHEOVIS PU and PE series of associative thickeners stand out as a class of groundbreaking additives based primarily on hydrophobically modified polyether and polyurethane derivatives. RHEOVIS HS and ASE are pH activated polyacrylate technology for ease of handling and in-can stability.
