Paints / Inks

"TECHPOLYMER" is widely used as a matting agent in paints. When incorporated to paint and coatings, "TECHPOLYMER" is easy to handle as it disperses well in solvent formulations, adds scratch resistance and matting.
Specific "TECHPOLYMER" grades offer additional functionalities such as texture (soft feel), solvent resistance, chemical resistance, etc.

"TECHPOLYMER" can add functionalities such as reducing gloss, increasing scratch resistance, and adding texture when incorporated to paint and coatings.

Features

Adding light diffusion properties

Able to add matting and texture.
Good dispersion properties

Able to propose different levels of solvent resistance to ensure good dispersion properties compared to alternative material in solvent base formulations/binders.
Abrasion resistant

Increases the abrasion resistance of the coating surface.
Soft feel (Haptics)

The soft particle grades can add soft feel effects on the coating surface.
Improving chemical resistance

Chemical resistance of the coating surface can be improved by "TECHPOLYMER" The variation of the different solvent resistant grades offers multiple solutions.

Applications

An uneven surface created by incorporating spherical polymer particles in coatings, assists in matting the surface with light diffusion properties and adding texture.
The smaller particle size "TECHPOLYMER" adds finer unevenness and can create depth in matted surface, while the larger particle size can add a satin finish.
