724 JET-SET™ FLOOR is a profoundly crosslinked thermosetting polymer concrete system that forms a dense hard impermeable surface upon curing that is resistant to a very wide range of aggressive chemicals.

A unique range of fully organic elastomers ideally suited to thermal, dynamic and specific plasma processes where radical concentrations are generally lower or where inorganic filler systems are undesirable. The Kimura® range of high performance elastomer materials utilize a controlled molecular architecture which provides a unique self-reinforcing polymer structure, providing improved chemical resistance without the use of inorganic fillers of any kind. This high purity material breaks new ground in elastomer technology, developed specifically for aggressive chlorine and CxFy based semiconductor applications. Kimura® elastomers span the range of fluoro and perfluoro (FKM and FFKM) materials and includes unique hybrid elastomers, specifically developed by PPE, for the semiconductor industry, to offer a step-change in sealing performance, surpassing what has previously been achievable for fully organic materials. The high purity of the polymer combined with the absence of inorganic fillers makes Kimura® materials suitable for processes involving lower feature sizes.

SILFOAM® is WACKER’s innovative brand for smart foam control products. It covers silicone-based integrated system solutions for regulatingfoam-intensive applications, and thereby optimizing processes and end products. SILFOAM® foam-control systems are the result of a continuous process of applied R&D. SILFOAM® is carefully tested for its compatibility and effectiveness in the customer's formulations, thereby avoiding overfoaming in advance.

Pro-977 Ultra Prime is a premium, pigmented water-based primer/sealer. PRO-977 is extremely water resistant, providing an ideal surface for wallcovering installations. PRO-977 is a universal primer which can be used in most applications in place of oil-based primers. Promotes strippability when removing wallcovering.

End Seal™ provides a functional and comprehensive protective water barrier that prevents moisture absorption and fast water evaporation from cross cut ends on logs, sawn lumber and cross laminated timber (CLT). Sansin End Seal is UV resistant, water-repellent and low in VOC’s offering protection to cross cut ends on logs, sawn lumber and CLT wood. End Seal provides deep wood penetration ensuring wood stability and long term protection while also reduce warping, shrinking and checking. This breathable, environmentally-friendly formula repels water, offers strong adhesion and offers easy soap and water clean-up.

Staple fiber, high tex yarns have a higher surface area that is ideal as a filtration medium for gas, dust and aerosols. Vetrotex manufactures a wide range of staple fibers ranging from 7 µm to 25 µm, perfect for use as filtration medium for mist elimination process. Vetrotex’s 11 um twisted staple fibers made of C offers a greater surface area for liquid filtration. Ideally designed for filtration medium in string wound cartridge filters used in aggressive chemical environment and high temperature applications. Fibers are bonded together with minimum amount of lubrication to provide good handling properties and higher tensile strength. Our staple fibers are non-hazardous and nonflammable.

ARDEX X 90 OUTDOOR™ MicroteC3 rapid-set, flexible tile and stone mortar is a revolutionary innovation in mortar technology that is formulated with specialty, high-performance ARDEX cements, polymers and microfibers to deliver maximum protection against the harshest weather conditions and provide the highest levels of efflorescence resistance for exterior tile and stone applications. ARDEX X 90 OUTDOOR can be installed over substrates with temperatures as low as 40˚F (5˚C) and can withstand driving rains or be grouted in only 2 hours.

TYTAN™ TIPT/TNBT/TET/EHT process catalyst series are the world’s leading products of homogeneous esterification and transesterification catalyst to typical users in plasticizer, acrylate and methacrylate manufacturers. TYTAN™ AP series adhesion promoter is specially designed for flexographic and gravure printing ink for flexible packaging films to improve adhesion and heat stability. TYTAN™ CX series cross-linking agents are designed to impart a shear reversible or thixotropic structure to latex paint and dispersion paint. Other catalysts are designed for polyester esterification catalysts and polyurethane catalysts.

GT-50 Pipe Wrap™ is a tough woven Geotextile faced 50 mil thick pipe tape designed for wrapping steel Gas and Oil pipelines and pipe joints providing exceptional cathodic protection.

Paracril NBR grades are produced by cold and hot polymerization process. The cold process yields linear polymers with good processing characteristics and solubility in polar solvents. The hot polymerization process leads to more branching. Branching in the hot Paracril grades is more developed in the higher viscosity grades. The hot polymers offer improved green strength. &rosslinNed 3aracril N%5 grades are unique in processing and function.

Solkem is our thixotropic range resins for Paints and Coatings.

MARTINAL® aluminum hydroxide (ATH) and MAGNIFIN® magnesium hydroxide (MDH) are halogen-free fire retardant additives that have proven themselves over time as dependable stalwarts that have met and exceeded the demanding requirements of compounders and producers. The environmentally-friendly MARTINAL® and MAGNIFIN® products are non-corrosive, inert and without effect of pigmentation smoke suppressors. MARTINAL® and MAGNIFIN® flame retardants are available in various grades, tailor-made precisely to the specific properties of major plastic systems meeting the most stringent requirements of the wire & cable industry. Precipitated MARTINAL® ATH and MAGNIFIN® MDH are used most commonly in different polymeric backbones for cable compounds. The high purity MARTINAL® and MAGNIFIN® grades are designed for use in plastics and rubber, but can also be used in other applications.

VersaFlex PW-1 is a specially formulated, low solids, single component primer designed for steel and metal. Its low viscosity contributes to ease of application and adheres well for top coating with VersaFlex polyurea products. PW-1 primer may be used with all VersaFlex rapid curing polyurea sealants and spray coating systems. It is designed for use in both interior and exterior priming situations. PW-1 is ideal for priming metal surfaces to help temporarily hold back flash rust.
