Tytan AQ5000 is used as an advanced polyesterification and transesterification catalyst based on the latest titanate technology. Tytan AQ5000 is recommended for the manufacture of unsaturated polyester, polyester, PET, PTT and PBT without sacrificing the performance when the water content increased in the system. Therefore, Tytan AQ5000 delivers reliable and high performance during the processing.

Tytan AP110 is modified from Tytan AP100, which is aiming for better compatibility with various ink formulations. Tytan AP110 is proved offering the same adhesion performance as Tytan AP100, in addition, preventing the viscosity changed during printing process.

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 AP100 is a Titanium Phosphate Complex of which the alkoxy groups can react with resins to promote adhesion and/or cross-linking while the chelating agents stabilize the molecule. Tytan AP100 is mainly designed to strongly increase adhesion of solvent based inks to a variety of plastics used for food packaging or other purposes. Tytan AP100 is transparent and therefore most suitable for modification of ink for very clear-colour and high-gloss printing. Tytan AP100 is low odour and applies to the most stringent contemporary legislation on registration of the ECB. Tytan AP100 can only be used in solvent based inks.

Tytan AP20 is primarily designed to strongly increase adhesion of solvent based inks to a variety of plastics used for food packaging or other purposes, but also pigment distribution and heat sealing resistance are improved allowing perfect hiding power and appearance of printing on otherwise problematic substrates. Tytan AP20 however is more user-friendly as the addition of the ethanol strongly reduces the pour point and as such the possibility for crystallization at low to normal temperatures. Tytan AP20 can only be used in solvent based inks and coatings.

Tytan AP310 is an ethyl citrate titanium complex 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 AP310 shows delayed reaction at ambient temperature and thus facilitates storage stability of inks.

Tytan AQ33 is used as an esterification and transesterification catalyst for the manufacture of unsaturated polyester, polyester, PET, PTT and PBT when water content is higher. Tytan AQ33 can also be used as adhesion promoter or cross linking agent for water based coating on various surface. Suggested dosage is 0.1 ~ 1% as catalyst and 0.5 ~ 5% as cross linking agent.
-
Tytan AQZ30 is a Zirconium triethanolamine complex that readily hydrolyses in water to produce a hydroxyl zirconium chelate. This will readily crosslink with –OH and –COOH groups in solvent and aqueous systems to form strong gels and has the potential to act as an adhesion promoter. AQZ30 is an effective rheology modifier for functionalised guar derivatives for secondary and tertiary recovery of oil and gas wells. It has the ability to crosslink in both water-borne and solvent-borne coatings and provides adhesion in water-borne and solvent-borne printing inks. Compared with titanium based alkanolamines, AQZ30 offers prevention against yellowing of the polymer in use.
-
Tytan CA 2E is a formulated catalyst suitable for ethylene dimerization process for high purity 1-butene production. The liquid phase catalyst could avoid isomerization of 1-butene to 2-butene.
-
Replacement for PU catalysts, especially for tin-based catalysts like DBTL. One- and two- component polyurethane systems, e.g. for automotive refinish coatings, general industrial coatings, coil coatings formulated with blocked isocyanates. Condensation reaction in RTV silicone resins and accelerate the cross-linking process. Catalyst for PU foams.
