Rheovis® AS 1125 is an efficient acrylic thickener (ASE) with pronounced pseudoplastic (low-shear) flow behavior. Its chemical nature involves an aqueous polymer dispersion. This thickener is suitable for many aqueous paint and coating systems, offering excellent thickening efficiency and pronounced pseudoplastic flow behavior.

Rheovis® AS 1130 is an ideal rheology-control additive for water-based coatings. It allows the formulation of coatings with advantageous thixotropic behavior, resulting in non-stringy formulations that are easy to apply over a wide range of speeds and processes. Such formulations are suitable for airless spray applications.

Efka® FA 4600 is an anti-settling agent for non-aqueous coatings, preventing sedimentation and agglomeration of even heavy pigments. is in a colorless to yellowish/reddish liquid form, Efka® FA 4600 is easily applicable and contributes to maintaining the stability of coatings.

Efka® FA 4663 AN is a versatile liquid additive with a range of functions, including wetting agent, dispersant, thickener, anti-floating agent, rheology modifier, grinding aid, and gelling agent. Compatible with epoxies (EP), alkyds, and acrylics, this product offers a comprehensive solution for various formulations.

FoamStar® ST 2438 is a 100% active defoamer compound combining a hyper-branched FoamStar polymer with high-end organo-silicones. It delivers fast foam knockdown with high efficiency. This defoamer does not reduce the gloss of high gloss paints and coatings, making it effective in difficult-to-defoam high gloss formulations. It ensures fast bubble-break versus conventional defoamers, effectiveness against microfoam, no separation or settling, very good persistence, and suitability for deep and clear/neutral bases.

Rheovis® HS 1303 EB stands as a highly efficient, hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsion (HASE) rheology modifier renowned for its pronounced high-shear behavior in numerous aqueous paint and coating systems. It exists in a physical form as a white liquid and finds end uses primarily in waterborne coatings. This product boasts labeling claims of being APEO-free and VOC-free. Its key features in CASE (coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers) ingredients include anti-settling properties, good leveling, high shear viscosity, high gloss, resistance to sagging, matting effect, and spatter resistance.

FoamStar® ST 2400 is part of a novel series of defoamers based on patented FoamStar® technology. It offers a very fast bubble break compared to conventional defoamers, proving effective in industrial coatings based on acrylic emulsions, with good persistence. The chemical nature involves a defoamer based on patented FoamStar® technology and mineral oil.

Dispex® Ultra FA 4416 is an outstanding wetting and dispersing agent for aqueous coatings, providing high gloss, excellent color strength, and excellent rub-out properties. Presented in yellow, viscous liquid form, Dispex® Ultra FA 4416 is ideal for aqueous top coats based on various binder types such as polyester solutions, polyacrylics, and PUR-emulsions.

Dispex® Ultra FA 4483 is an excellent dispersing agent for inorganic pigments. In clear, viscous liquid form, Dispex® Ultra FA 4483 is well-suited for dispersing inorganic pigments like iron oxide, titanium dioxide, calcium sulfate (gypsum), etc.

Rheovis® HS 1162 is an outstanding rheology modifier for water-based coatings with an extremely low-shear to thixotropic flow behavior. It provides rheology control through extensive swelling of the high-molecular-weight polymer in combination with a hydrophobic component, resulting in an excellent balance between sag resistance and leveling, making it ideal for airless spray applications or non-dripping paints and stains.

Rheovis® HS 1152 functions as a rheology modifier and is an outstanding rheology-control agent for water-based coatings. It increases viscosity in the low-shear range and develops a pseudoplastic (shear-thinning) viscosity. The polymer achieves rheology control through extensive swelling of a high-molecular-weight polymer in combination with a hydrophobic component.

Dispex® Ultra FA 4480 is a low molecular weight wetting and dispersing agent with excellent pigment wetting properties, especially suitable for coatings and aqueous pigment pastes. In viscous liquid form, Dispex® Ultra FA 4480 demonstrates excellent wetting and dispersing properties in aqueous, binder, and solvent-free pigment pastes, providing outstanding flow properties even at high pigment loads.
