Advanced Construction Binders from Synthomer, Supported by DKSH Performance Materials

REVACRYL AE 4522 K is a specially modified aqueous dispersion of a styrene-acrylic ester copolymer, formulated without film-forming aids, solvents, or plasticizers. It is designed around the demands of waterproofing, priming, and tile adhesive applications where adhesion under wet conditions is non-negotiable.

The polymer is chemically engineered to bond to mineral substrates, maintaining adhesion even in moist or submerged conditions. It forms a clear, tack-free film with good resistance to light, ageing, and alkali. Its high filler loading capacity and compatibility with conventional pigments and fillers give formulators broad latitude in product design, including cement-free, ready-to-use tile adhesives.

For manufacturers in the tile adhesive and waterproofing segment, REVACRYL AE 4522 K offers a technically proven base that supports compliance with standards such as DIN 18156. Its modification chemistry — aimed specifically at wet adhesion — makes it a differentiated option compared to standard acrylic dispersions in markets where product performance under water exposure is a competitive factor.

REVACRYL R 8300 est une dispersion de polymère acrylique styrène à haute teneur en solides qui présente un film très flexible mais résistant à l’eau. Il présente également une bonne compatibilité avec le ciment.

REVACRYL R 472 M AF is a high-solids styrene acrylic polymer dispersion formulated without APEO surfactants or formaldehyde-releasing biocides. It delivers a film that combines flexibility with water resistance, meeting both performance and environmental expectations in construction applications.

This dispersion is designed for cement-based systems where flexibility is a priority. It provides strong adhesion across a wide range of concrete surfaces and offers excellent binding capacity for cement, pigments, and fillers. Formulators working on surface patching compounds or cement admixtures will find it well suited to demanding substrate conditions.

REVACRYL R 472 M AF addresses growing formulation requirements around safer raw materials. Its freedom from APEO surfactants and formaldehyde-based biocides supports the development of more sustainable construction product lines without compromising on adhesion or film performance.

AXILAT UP 460S is a hydrophobic, vinyl acetate-based core-shell terpolymer supplied as a free-flowing redispersible powder. It is manufactured without organic solvents, plasticizers, or film-forming aids, making it a clean-label choice for dry mortar systems.

When incorporated into dry mortar formulations, this polymer improves workability during mixing, enhances adhesion to standard construction substrates, and strengthens key mechanical properties including flexibility and cohesion. Its core-shell architecture delivers consistent performance across a broad application temperature range, including cooler site conditions.

For formulators seeking compliance with demanding indoor air quality standards, AXILAT UP 460S is engineered to support EMICODE EC1+ classification. Its very high alkaline resistance makes it a reliable polymer choice where long-term durability in cementitious environments is a critical requirement.

AXILAT™ HP 8513 est une résine copolymère d’acétate de vinyle, de vinyle versatate sous forme de poudre redispersible.

AXILAT TP 178 est une résine copolymère d’acétate de™ vinyle et d’éthylène sous forme de poudre redispersible. Il s’agit d’une résine très polyvalente avec une grande redispersibilité dans l’eau et utilisée dans les mortiers secs.

AXILAT™ TP 176 est une résine de copolymère d’acétate de vinyle et d’éthylène sous forme de poudre redispersible. Il s’agit d’une résine très polyvalente avec une grande redispersibilité dans l’eau et utilisée dans les mortiers secs.

PLEXTOL R 4166 convient aux revêtements sportifs (couche de finition pour l’habillage des courts de tennis et des pistes de course) et à la peinture extérieure avec une bonne rétention de la couleur et une résistance modérée à l’enlèvement de la saleté.
