Speciality Surfactants

We have multiple surfactant technology platforms and continuously research and innovate novel surface active agents to support the development of next generation binders and formulations. We offer a wide range of speciality surfactants to solve challenges in water borne and solvent borne technologies in coatings and adhesives applications.

Emulsifiers

We have developed a number of successful emulsion polymerisation systems for use in a broad range of applications. 
LoVOCoat polymeric water in oil (W/O) emulsifies to reduce solvent levels by the incorporation of water into solvent borne coatings, without affecting drying or dry film properties. 

Maxemul 5000 and Maxemul 6000 are reactive oil in water (O/W) emulsifiers that are developed for emulsion polymerisation of vinyl acetate and acrylic binders. Maxemul grafted surfactants demonstrate superiority over conventional surfactants both in latex stability and in the resulting dry film properties.

Maxemul 7000 and Maxemul 8000 polymeric oil in water (O/W) surfactants to formulate VOC free resin emulsions with similar dry film properties as traditional solvent based formulations.

Synperonic block co-polymer emulsifiers to formulate high performing water borne epoxy emulsions.

Dispersing agents

Zephrym non/low VOC polymeric pigment dispersants providing excellent pigment loading and colour development for aqueous and non-aqueous application

Wetting agents

Multiwet is a range of multifuctional wetting agents for water based formulations combining excellent substrate wetting, improved solids wetting and reduced foaming with a good environmental profile.

Synperonic multifunctional, low VOC wetting agents for water borne pigment dispersions providing excellent surface tension reduction.
