TARGON® GA 1 is a setting retarder formulated with sodium phosphate, hydroxypolycarboxylic acid, and an anticaking agent. This white powder can be blended with TYLOSE® MC variants and other processing auxiliaries, such as surfactants. Serving as a setting retarder, it finds application in gypsum plaster that is devoid or has minimized calcium hydroxide content (both manual and mechanical applications), as well as in plaster adhesives.

TARGON® G 5 is a secondary retarder derived from condensed phosphates. It presents as a white, fine, non-hygroscopic powder, serving as a secondary retarder element for pre-mixed gypsum plaster. This product exerts a dispersing influence on the plaster's solid components. It ensures consistent setting and extends the interval for manipulation between cutting and felting stages. TARGON® G 5 further enhances the final treatment characteristics.

TARGON® G 2 is a distinct product grounded in condensed phosphates, coupled with an anticaking agent characterized by hydrophobic attributes. It appears as a white, finely textured powder with commendable flowability. Serving as a secondary retarder element for pre-mixed gypsum plaster, this product prevents abrupt caking, establishes consistent setting, extends the time allocated for treatment between cutting and felting, and enhances the qualities of the final treatment.

Pangel® W is a rheological additive meticulously engineered to induce robust pseudoplastic behavior in any formulation it is incorporated into. Pangel® W range is specifically formulated to serve as a thickener and water retention additive in emulsion paints.

Texicryl® 13-313 is an alkali swellable thickener crafted specifically for water-based formulations. This product excels in efficiently modifying viscosities at low shear rates to prevent both settling and sagging.

Texicryl® 13-308 is an APEO-free ASE (Alkali-Swellable Emulsion) rheology modifier designed for a broad range of water-based applications. It imparts a short pseudoplastic flow, enhancing the rheological properties of the system. This product is easily mixed into water-based systems and, in many cases, can be added directly to the system to be thickened, followed by pH adjustment.

Texipol® 63-258 is an inverse emulsion thickener known for imparting an extremely short flow to a wide variety of aqueous and non-aqueous compositions, effective across a wide pH range. Supplied as a low-viscosity liquid, it offers almost instantaneous thickening upon direct mixing into the composition. Its polymer, already in solution as the ammonium salt, eliminates the need for additional additives to promote thickening. APEO-free, Texipol® 63-258 is suitable for various applications requiring short flow characteristics.

Deuteron® SR 28 is a natural biopolymer derived from polysaccharides. It demonstrates solubility in both cold and hot water, forming pseudoplastic solutions. This product exhibits a milky, yellowish appearance and is supplied in powdered form, offering versatility in its application and formulation.

Texipol 63-201 is an inverse emulsion thickener that imparts a stringy and mildly pseudoplastic rheology to aqueous based compositions. It is supplied as a pre-neutralized dispersion, as the sodium salt of an acrylic copolymer. It is a high efficiency thickener used for carpet backing compounds with long flow character.

Bentonite is a multi-use clay generated from volcanic ash. They are considered predominantly in the smectite mineral family. This volcanic clay was formed millions of years ago when mineral sea deposits came in contact with the Earth’s surface at incredibly high temperatures. The result created a magnetic charge, hence the alternative name “living clay.”
