VIALKYD AM 764/70WS has an extremely good resistance to weather and water. Easy to brush, high build. Radiant brilliance, good gloss retention. Exterior wood paints, and wood stains. Clear varnishes, yacht varnishes. Anticorrosive systems. VIALKYD AM 764 is designed as sole binder for the formulation of top grade wood enamels and stains. High build trade paints can be produced from VIALKYD AM 764 in conjunction with non-yellowing alkyds. Clear varnishes and glazes (exterior wood stains). VIALKYD AM 764 excels in weather resistance and thus recommends itself as sole binder for clear varnishes, wood stains and glazes. Furthermore, VIALKYD AM 764 shows excellent wood penetration and big ease of application. Clear varnishes on VIALKYD AM 764 exhibit good gloss retention and have no tendency to cracking, owing to durable flexibility. Yacht varnishes Besides superior weather resistance VIALKYD AM 764 exhibits excellent water resistance. These properties allow the formulation of varnishes subject to continued impact of UV-light and water, such as for yachts and other boats. Trade paints and industrial paints VIALKYD AM 764 imparts excellent build and gloss to trade paints. Owing to its yellowing tendency, for white paints it is used in conjunction with non-yellowing alkyd resins. As combination partner VIALKYD AM 764 markedly improves brushability and flow. Metal primers and finishes can be also formulated from VIALKYD AM 764. These paints are used in cases where requirements regarding weather resistance and gloss retention are high.

VIALKYD AC 290/70MPAC has an excellent compatibility characteristics with alkyd stoving paints, thermosetting acrylic paints, NC-lacquers, acid curing enamels, alkyd- or acrylic-isocyanate enamels. Grinding resin for pigment pastes. VIALKYD AC 290 has been designed as grinding resin in the formulation of pigment pastes which have full compatibility with alkyd stoving paints, thermosetting acrylic paints, nitrocellulose enamels and acid curing enamels, alkyd- or acrylics- polyiscoyanate combinations. The pastes can be reduced with the respertive resins and give paints with the performance of irrelevant modified basic paint properties. VIALKYD AC 290 has a balanced functionality and is fully integrated into the cured film. Therefore, it must be fully considered as resin component for reaction with amine resins, polyisocyanates, nitrocellulose systems and acid curing systems. Up to a resin proportion of 30 % of VIALKYD AC 290, the performance of the binder resin is not influenced adversely. VIALKYD AC 290 shows yellowing resistance up to 30 min / 200 °C and acts up favourably to top quality alkyd resins. Solvent resistance is not adversely affected. At low curing temperatures, VIALKYD AC 290 shows good crosslinking and is thus also suitable for quick stoving 80 °C enamels. Owing to the excellent performance of VIALKYD AC 290 in a variety of paint formulations and due to the fact that VIALKYD AC 290 does not subdue the characteristics of the main binder, paint preparation can be substantially rationalized with this new grinding medium.

VIALKYD AN 928/65MPAC is a medium reactivity, high hardness. Superior abrasion and impact resistance. Radiant brilliance. Two-pack polyurethane enamels for metal and wood. VIALKYD AN 928 is a branched hydroxyl functional polyester suitable as crosslinker for aliphatic and aromatic polyisocyanates. The components react at ambient temperature and give films with outstanding light fastness and gloss retention. The high reactivity affords crosslinking particularly with Desmodur N, Desmodur L and Desmodur HL grades. VIALKYD AN 928 can be used as sole binder in the formulation of clear and pigmented paints for coachworks and high rise panels affording excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals and water. The substrates can be wood, metal or plastic.

VIALKYD AC 451N/70SNB is used as automotive finishes with high gloss and excellent weather resistance and paints for household appliances. It is used as stoving enamels VIALKYD AC 451n/70SNB is suitable for cross-linking with amino resins especially to formulate high quality stoving systems for automotive top-coats and one-coat systems for household and electrical appliances. Films based on VIALKYD AC 451n have good gloss, high body and excellent outdoor durability as well as resistance to petrol and UV radiation. Excellent impact resistance, flexibility, adhesion and surface hardness round out of VIALKYD AC 451n properties. VIALKYD AC 451n is generally used with reactive conventional melamine resins in ratios of 70 : 30 to 75 : 25 (on solids). Depending on the reactivity of the melamine resin curing takes place at temperatures of 120 - 140 °C for 30 min. When using high reactive dehydrated castor oil alkyd resin grades such as VIALKYD AR 340 in combination with melamine resin it is possible to reach curing conditions of 30 min 100 - 120 °C. In addition it is possible using an acid catalyst (e. g. 0.5 - 1 % p-toluene sulphonic acid, 10 % in xylene) to increase reaction speed to enable on-line repair in the automotive industry.
