Crys-Talc® 4H has a platy, hydrophobic structure used in  architectural and industrial primers to improve barrier properties which impart corrosion resistance and stain blocking  ability.

Mistron® 403 is a high-purity, platy, microcrystalline talc. In architectural and industrial primers, it provides barrier properties to improve corrosion resistance and stain-blocking ability. Mistron® 403 also prevents tannin bleed and improves gloss uniformity in solid-color and semi-transparent stains. In sealant formulations, Mistron® 403 enhances film strength and flexibility.

Mistron® 353 is a high-purity microcrystalline talc. Mistron® 353 is used in interior and exterior coating, adhesive, and sealant formulations to reduce hard settling, improve sag resistance, and maximize prime pigment extension. Mistron® 353 is used in solid-color and semi-transparent wood stains to prevent tannin bleed and improve gloss uniformity without introducing abrasive characteristics.

Nicron® 674 is an ultra-fine, high-purity microcrystalline talc. It is insoluble in mineral acids, hydrophobic, and non-abrasive to compounding and processing equipment. Nicron® 674 is used in a wide variety of applications, including interior/exterior coatings, color concentrates, adhesives, sealants, and thermoplastic polymers.

Nicron® 403 is a high-purity microcrystalline talc. The lamellar nature of Nicron® 403 enhances film strength and flexibility and provides barrier properties in architectural and industrial primers and topcoats to improve corrosion resistance and stain-blocking ability. Nicron® 403 is also used in paints to improve sag resistance and maximize prime pigment extension. Nicron® 403 is used in solid-color and semi-transparent wood stains to prevent tannin bleed and improve gloss uniformity without introducing abrasive characteristics.

OMACIDE™ IPBC 40 Industrial Fungicide is a pungent aromatic, pale yellow to amber-colored liquid broad spectrum fungicide additive. It is used in architectural coatings, textiles, construction applications such as paints, stains, adhesives, caulks, and sealants, as well as plastic product applications to prevent dry film fungal growth. OMACIDE™ IPBC 40 Industrial Fungicide is also a very effective additive for controlling fungal growth in aqueous-based fluids such as inks and metalworking fluids.

OMACIDE™ IPBC 30 Fungicide is a broad spectrum liquid fungicide based on the widely used fungicide active, 3-iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC). It imparts dry film protection against fungal growth when formulated in exterior paints and coatings, wood stains, adhesives, caulks, sealants, paper coatings, textiles, and plastics. OMACIDE™ IPBC 30 Fungicide also provides excellent fungal control when used in inks and metalworking fluid systems.

OMACIDETM™ IPBC 20 TX Fungicide is a highly effective broad spectrum fungicide suitable for the preservation of a variety of solvent-based industrial products, including architectural coatings, wood stains and construction materials, against spoilage from fungi & yeasts. The active agent is 3-iodo 2-propynyl-N-butylcarbamate (IPBC) in a solvent package of an ester alcohol and glycol ether.
