  • Tytan CX400 is titanium chelate of alkanolamine titanate complex and developed as a rheology modifier for use in emulsion paints. Tytan CX400 reacts with colloid stabilized binders to impart thixotropic structure. Tytan CX400 is suitable for VOC free paint.
  • Tytan CX200 is a chelated Titanium Alkanolamine Complex developed as a rheology modifier for emulsion paints. Tytan CX200 reacts with colloid stabilized binders to impart a thixotropic structure to the paint through shear sensitive hydrogen bonding. Tytan CX200 has no to little effect on the rheology of emulsion paints based on surfactant stabilized binders. Tytan CX200 has improved compatibility with a broad range of paint formulations but it is still recommended that use of Tytan CX200 shall always be based on sample testing to evaluate potential interaction with other components or additives of the paint formulation.

  • Pangel B-42 is a powdered additive with a high thickening and anti-settling capacity for high polarity systems, particularly recommended for systems based on alcohol, glycol an ketone type solvents, as well as in mixtures of those with water. Pangel B-42 is particularly recommended to provide thixotropic, suspension and sagging-resistance properties to systems based on alcohol, glycol an ketone type solvents, as well as in mixtures of those with water. Pangel B-42 provides a strongly pseudoplastic character, producing high consistency levels without affecting viscosity during application. It exhibits its high effectiveness as anti-settling additive in formulations with high solid contents. Use of Pangel B-42 has the following advantages against other conventional additives: • Coatings and paints- Prevents settling of pigments and fillers; controls sagging without aggravating leveling; high stability during transportation and storage. • Printing inks: Improves consistency and prevents settling of pigments. • Paint strippers: Improves stability and facilitates stripping action. • Sealants and joints: Improves wetting and suspension properties; controls sliding. • Others: Control of sagging and dripping; improves stability.
