A-C® 6A is a homopolymer in a powdered form; for use in solvent borne coatings, heatset and liquid solvent borne inks, to improve surface properties such as rub, mar & abrasion resistance, by lowering the COF.

 

It is also used as a gellant for hydrocarbon oils, a paraffin crystal nucleator in wax blends such as candles, and a viscosity diluent in HMAs.

 

A-C® 6A can be also partially substituted for FT (Fisher Tropsch) Wax in adhesive applications without detracting from formulation properties. Used in cable flooding compounds, along with polybutene. Is used as a dispersing agent in color masterbatch applications.

Ceridust 2020 TP enhances rub and scratch resistance, improves slip properties and reduces gloss for all kind of printing inks and coatings. It is also a processing agent for powder coatings to increase output and flowability of powder and matting agent therefore.

Ceridust 2740 TP is a micronized modified amide wax. Used in solvent or water based liquid coatings, e.g. in wood coatings, it shows good matting, clarity, scratch resistance and slip properties. Ceridust 2740 TP is an effective degassing agent and can also increase the output during extrusion process and improve flow ability in powder coating application. It also provides improved slip properties and enhances scratch resistance of the cured powder coating.

CASTOR OIL is a vegetable oil pressed from castor beans. It is a colourless to very pale yellow liquid with a distinct taste and odor. Its boiling point is 313 °C (595 °F) and its density is 0.961 g/cm3. It includes a mixture of triglycerides in which about 90% of fatty acids are ricinoleates. Key Application: Lubricants, hydraulic and brake fluids, paints, dyes, coatings, inks, cold-resistant plastics, waxes and polishes.
