The UCD® PS colorants are a series of 100%-solids colorants for high-performance coatings. Each product in the line consists of a dry pigment milled in a low-molecular-weight methoxy-functional polysiloxane intermediate. These colorants are designed to be reacted with other silicone, alkyd, epoxy, polyester, and hydroxyl-functional resins to produce coatings with outstanding properties.

Chroma-Chem 897 colorants are the next generation of high strength, low VOC colorants designed for use in a wide variety of water-based industrial coatings. The colorants are exceptional for universal tinting of water-based industrial coatings. The pigments specifically chosen for the Chroma-Chem 897 line provide broader color space, excellent durability, light fastness, chemical resistance. All colorants are APE free. Chroma-Chem 897 colorants can be used for both volumetric dispensing and in-plant tinting. They feature best-in-class quality for color retention, dispensability, consistency and film property retention in a wide range of aqueous chemistries.

The UCD SF colorants have been designed for broad use in reactive industrial coatings. These products use a highly durable resin with closely controlled color strength and viscosity to permit reproducible color matches by volumetric machine dispensers or weight measurement in the plant.

 

The UCD SF Line colorants provide a broad color spectrum in a colorless, unsaturated, low-molecular weight polyester resin containing no solvents or reactive monomers. These products are formulated at maximum pigment loading to minimize the effects of the polyester vehicle on the coating film while maintaining a pourable colorant system. 

 

The UCD SF colorant vehicle is an unsaturated polyester with secondary hydroxyl and acid end groups. For urethane coatings, the equivalent weight of 319 (on solids) for the polyester resin can be used to calculate isocyanate demand. The acid number for the resin is 20 - 25.

 

The UCD SF line is formulated for use in many industrial coatings including, but not limited to automotive putties, coil, concrete protection, gel coats, general industrial finishes, UV, and wood coatings.
