TYTANTM Titanate Coupling & Dispersing Agent Titanate Coupling Agents are molecular bridges at the interface between inorganic filler such as CaCO3, BaSO4, graphite, carbon black, silica and metal oxide with polymer such as PP, PE, PVC, PBT, PET, ABS and rubbers. When incorporated into polymer systems, the coupling agent could improve filler loading, pigment dispersion, impact strength hence reduce embrittlement. Silane coupling agent only reacts with hydroxyl group on the filler surface via water condensation of silanol-siloxane process, therefore, it is suitable for glass, alumina hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide and metal powder etc. The advantage of titanate coupling agents is that they react not only with the hydroxyls but the free protons on the inorganic interface, which results in the formation of organic monomolecular layers on the inorganic surface forming the bonding for polymers.

Tytan AP910D is an ethyl citrate zirconium that can be used as an adhesion promoter for printing, crosslinker for paints and as a catalyst for esterification. Due to its chelated structure, Tytan AP910D shows delayed reaction at ambient temperature and thus facilitates storage stability of inks. Compared with organo-titanate adhesion promoters, it shows good compatibility with PVB, CAB and CAP inks and provides minimal discoloration during the sterilizing process in the printing of milk pouches. As the temperature increases above 60oC, the zirconate can interact with functional groups such as -OH, -COOH, -NH2 in the polymer or substrate.

Tytan TIPT is a very reactive primary titanate that will hydrolyse immediately in contact with moisture. Tytan TIPT is mainly used as catalyst for esterification, trans-esterification and olefin polymerization. Tytan TIPT can also be used selectively as an adhesion promoting and cross-linking agent for hydroxylic compounds or heat and corrosion resistant coatings. Tytan TIPT is most suitable for use in the glass and glass fibre manufacturing. Tytan TIPT can only be used as an additive to solvent based products.

Titanium Acetylacetonate. Improved corrosion resistance.

Tytan TNBZ is a very reactive primary zirconate that will hydrolyse immediately in contact with moisture. Tytan TNBZ is mainly used as catalyst for esterification, trans-esterification and olefin polymerization (Ziegler-Natta). Tytan TNBZ is very suitable as an adhesion promoting and cross-linking agent for hydroxylic compounds or heat and corrosion resistant coatings.

Tytan TET is titanium chelate of triethanolamine and isopropyl alcohol complexes with chemical formula as (TEA)2 – Ti – (OiPr) 2. Tytan TET is water soluble titanate and can be used in a variety of applications e.g. as cross-linking agent in aqueous and non-aqueous paint, wire enamel and adhesion promoter in polyurethane system.

Tetra 2-etehylhexyl titanate, a titanium alkoxide. Used as a esterification and transesterification catalyst, as an olefin polymerisation catalyst, as an adhesion promoter, as a crosslinking agent for hydroxylic compounds and as a component of heat and corrosion resistant paints.

Tytan ZPN is aqueous solution of ammonia zirconium lactate and is used in paint manufacture to improve gel strength, anti-sagging, paint structuring and levelling. Tytan ZPN shall be added at the last stage after formulated paint with typical level between 0.3 ~ 1.5%. Tytan ZPN works well in the surfactant stabilized paint as well as colloid stabilized paint.
