Products in Adhesives & Sealants: Wetting Agent

ADDAPT PolySurF ACE is a solvent free polymerisable additive. It imparts benefits like: acid resistance, high gloss, excellent pigment wetting, water repellence, film appearance, UV stability and improved adhesion to thermoplastics. It is the Acrylic Acid adduct of the epoxy ester of Versatic Acid.

CoatOSil™ 7605 coatings additive has been shown to provide these same performance enhancements to powder coating formulations. Unlike most others in the CoatOSil™ line of additives, it is the waxy solid nature of CoatOSil™ 7605 coatings additive that can allow it be incorporated into powder coating formulations.

ADDAPT BioWet 450C is a VOC free, ready biodegradable wetting agent for aqueous systems such as cleaning agents and (paper) coatings. It is a proprietary blend off Polyalkylene glycols in water and surface active compounds

METOLAT P 854 is recommended for use in dry mixtures which are to be blended or diluted with water prior to application. The use of METOLAT P 854 significantly improves wetting of pigments and extenders.

Girnar Industries Castor Oil Commercial Grade is obtained from the seeds of Ricinus Communis, which is a pale yellow, viscous, oily liquid insoluble in water. It contains more than 87% of a unique hydroxy fatty acid viz. Ricinoleic acid.

METOLAT® P 590 is an APEO free wetting agent in powder form. It is added to dry blends, which are dissolved in water before application. The addition of METOLAT® P 590 results in an accelerated wetting of all solid particles, including sand, cement and fibers. This results in a more homogeneous mixture of the mass and a more uniform aspect of the surface after drying. In pigmented systems METOLAT® P 590 leads to a faster wetting of the pigment surface and prevents reagglomeration.

CoatOSil™ 7600 coatings additive is a silicone polyether copolymer with a pendant structure. It has been incorporated as a wetting agent or co-emulsifier in industrial and decorative water-based coatings.

MUNZING’s METOLAT 700 series are APEO free wetting agents with excellent equilibrium and dynamic surface tension reduction for a wide range of coating and ink applications. The METOLAT 700 wetting agent product range has varying HLB’s specifically designed to provide optimal performance based on the customer’s system chemistry and application requirements.

Deuteron ES 222 is a surface active additive. Its presence in a mixture of unsaturated polyester resin/reactive-solvent (styrene) helps in re­moving air-bubbles. This applies in particular after mixing resin and curing agent. Technologically useful is the improved wetting of the substrate, thus making it easier to release air bubbles from the substrate’s surface.Because of the above mentioned properties Deuteron ES 222 is an effective wetting and air release agent in particular for laminating resins based on unsaturated polyester. The product is very suitable in laminating resins where excellent adhesion of polyester resins and glass fiber is required. Deuteron ES 222 is also very suitable as an air release agent in other systems based on unsaturated polyester resins. back

ADDAPT BioWet 75 is a biodegradable wetting and leveling agent for water based systems such as fountain solutions and water based lacquers. The product shows excellent static as well as dynamic surface tension values. It is a Polyhydroxy – Amide in water. The product is EINECS registered.

METOLAT P 860 is recommended for the use in dry mixtures which are to be blended or diluted with water prior to application. METOLAT P 860 reduces shrinkage in cementitious systems and acts as coalescent in powder paints.
