Paints & Coatings

Ethene, homopolymer, used in painting and powder painting, good transparancy, flatting agent, good abrasion performance and hand feeling, improving demould.

A-C 629 is a low density Oxidized Polyethylene (LDOxPE) homopolymer in prill form for use in solvent borne coatings as a rheological aid. It also finds use as a metal release agent in PVC. It can also be atmospherically emulsified for use in aqueous applications, such as textiles, lubricants, coatings and inks, to lower the COF and provide surface properties such as mar & abrasion resistance and increased slip.

A-C 6 is a low density polyethylene (LDPE) homopolymer in a prill form, for use in solvent borne coatings, heatset and liquid solvent borne inks, to improve surface properties such as rub, mar & abrasion resistance, by lowering the COF. It is also used as a gellant for hydrocarbon oils, a paraffin crystal nucleator in wax blends such as candles, and a viscosity diluent in HMAs. Can also be partially substituted for FT (Fisher Tropsch) Wax in adhesive applications without detracting from formulation properties. Used in cable flooding compounds, along with polybutene.

ACUMIST A12 is Micronized Oxidized Polyethylene Homopolymer for use in water based coatings, flexographic and gravure inks and overprint varnishes. It also can be used as a processing aid, matting and antissetling agent in paints.
