Coatings, Inks & Construction

DEFOAM RG 115

Silicone-free defoamer suitable for solvent-based and solvent-free coatings. It is used in wood and furniture coatings, based on glossy polyester. It is designed for epoxy systems, fillers, base coats and pigmented finishes. Shelf life: 12 months.Benefits:Provides a quick defoaming and air release effectIt can cause turbidity in clear coat 

DEFOAM RG 119/V

Silicone-based defoamer recommended for water-based coating applications. It is designed for styrene-acrylic, polyurethane and epoxy resins. Shelf life: 12 months.Benefits:It is VOC-free and has no negative influence on glossIt prevents the formation of micro and macro foam during production and application processesIt works from acidic to alkaline pHIt can be easily incorporated into the medium with low shear forcesIt does not produce unwanted secondary effects related to film appearance

DEFOAM RG 139

Defoamer designed for water-borne coating systems. It can be used both in pigmented and transparent systems. Shelf life: 12 months.Benefits:It is very effective in systems from low to high thickness, which are applied through an airless or airmix systemIt removes micro foam from the coatingIt does not affect the gloss 

DEFOAM RG 145

Silicone defoamer recommended for water-based coating systems. It is designed for polyurethane dispersions, acrylic- and epoxy resins. Shelf life: 12 months.Benefits:It is free from VOCIt prevents the formation of micro and macro foam during the production and application processesIt does not produce unwanted side effects related to the appearance of the filmHas low risks of micro-crater formation and does not affect shineIt complies with Ecolabel 1999/10 / EC

DEFOAM RG 187

Silicone-free defoamer recommended for solvent-free, solvent- and water-based paints. It is designed for acrylic- and 2K epoxy paints, flexographic inks, and clear coat. Shelf life: 12 months.Benefits:It helps in avoiding surface defects and adhesion problems between substratesIt is very efficient to avoid micro foamIt shows a high anti-bubbling action with long-lasting efficiency

HYDROTENSE D 801

Wetting agent used in paints and plastic coatings. Shelf life: 6 months.Benefits:It produces a greater yield of the pigmentation, leading to quantitative reduction of opaque pigmentsIt reduces or eliminates the tendency of blinding paints It achieves maximum effectiveness in the presence of an anionic surfactantIt reduces the surface tension of water present in the paint or plasticProvides greater water wettability towards hydrophobic pigments such as carbon black and organic dyes

HYDROTENSE DL 440

Highly efficient, anionic dispersing agent designed for water-based paint applications. It is used in the production of tinting pastes and organic pigments. Shelf life: 6 months.Benefits:It strongly reduces the viscosity of the mill base Provides high pigment concentration with low viscosity and long shelf lifeIn presence of hydrophobic pigments, it is recommended in combination with non-ionic surfactants like HYDROTENSE ML-PE/4 or HYDROTENSE WG 4It is free from VOC

HYDROTENSE LS 6

Wetting-, dispersing agent and non-ionic surfactant suitable for paints, putties and inks based on emulsion resins.Benefits:It is a self-emulsionable soy lecithin
