PRIMAL™ SF-240 is a 100% acrylic emulsion based on FORMASHIELD™ technology suitable for coating applications.Benefits:Offers ambient crosslinking and excellent scrub resistanceIt has ability to react with selective organic compounds to enhance indoor air qualityProvides film toughness at low coalescent demand and facilitates the formulation of low odor paintsImparts excellent wet and dry adhesion to aged alkyd paintsAPEO- and Ammonia-freeNo formaldehyde or formaldehyde generators are added intentionallyTypical Applications:Recommended for premium quality interior paints.

PRIMAL™ PR-73 is a styrene acrylic emulsion based on AVANSE™ technology suitable for coating applications.Benefits:Offers excellent scrub resistance, early chalking resistance and hidingProvides excellent adhesion to concrete and masonry surfaces with excellent efflorescence and alkali resistancePrimers based on product can be applied over fresh concrete, once the surface water has evaporatedThe early application of a primer, followed by subsequent topcoats, can significantly reduce labor costs on major projectsAPEO- and ammonia-freeNo formaldehyde or formaldehyde generators are added intentionallyTypical Applications:Recommended for primer applications over fresh concrete.

PRIMAL™ EP-6060 is a styrene acrylic emulsion suitable for coating applications.Benefits:Offers early hardness, block resistance and sandabilityProvides wet and dry clarity to filmsIt has very good non-yellowing properties, especially over white finishesPossesses good hot print resistance with excellent mar and scratch resistanceTypical Applications:Recommended for factory applied wood coatings. It can be used in clear formulations as sealer and topcoats. It is also suitable for lightly pigmented (PVC 20%) coatings.

PRIMAL™ E-357 is a 100% acrylic emulsion suitable for factory applied coatings over cementitious or primed metal substrates.Benefits:Exhibits high block resistance, excellent exterior durability and fast hardness developmentIt is a hard thermoplasticOffers good preheating and forced drying conditionsTypical Applications:Recommended for cementitious substrates such as fiber cement panels for facade and roofing, concrete elements and corrugated sheets. It is also designed to perform best on industrial coating lines. Facilitates the formulation into both pigmented coatings and clear varnishes for use directly over pigmented paints.

PRIMAL™ DC-668 is a high-quality styrene acrylic emulsion designed for interior and exterior paints.Benefits:Offers excellent durability and very good water streak mark resistancePossess excellent scrub-, water-, alkali- and hydrolysis resistanceProvides excellent performance, adhesion and efflorescence resistance over masonry substratesCompatible with a wide variety of pigments and extenders, HASE or HEUR rheology modifiersAPEO- and Ammonia-freeNo formaldehyde or formaldehyde generators are added intentionallyTypical Applications:Recommended for primers and topcoat applications. It is also suitable for decorative coatings (paint and primer in one).

RHOBARR™ 135 is an anionic acrylic barrier coating emulsion.Benefits:Offers excellent barrier to hot oil, grease and blends of fatty acidsProvides excellent resistance to hot block, flexibility and good repulpabilityPossess good stability when blended with inorganic pigments such as clay, calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide and talcIt also shows good stability when blended with water soluble polymers such as starch, PVOH or rheology modifiersGood performance can be achieved by using binder-rich coating formulations in applications where fatty acid resistance is importantTypical Applications:Designed for paper, paperboard and packaging applications. It is also suitable for aqueous coatings or printing methods.

RHOBARR™ 110 is an anionic acrylic barrier coating emulsion.Benefits:Facilitates barrier to hot oil, grease and liquid waterIt is heat sealable with flexibility, low surface tack and good resistance to blockingProvides hydrophobic barrier with high glossThis binder shows good stability when blended with inorganic pigments such as clay, calcium carbonate, titanium dioxide and talcIt also possesses good stability when blended with water soluble polymers such as starch, PVOH or rheology modifiersComplies with FDA 21CRF176.180 regulationIt also complies with the requirements of BfR-recommendation XIV-ATypical Applications:Designed for use in paper and board coatings. It is also suitable for aqueous coatings or printing methods.
