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 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.

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.

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 Titanate Coupling & Dispersing Agents are molecular bridges at the interface between inorganic fillers (such as CaCO3, BaSO4, graphite, talc, carbon black, silica and metal oxides) and polymers (such as PP, PE, PVC, PBT, PET, ABS and rubbers). When incorporated into polymers, the coupling agent could improve filler loading, pigment dispersion, processability and composite mechanical properties to achieve the specification desired. As a comparison, silane coupling agents only reacts with hydroxyl groups on the filler surface via water condensation of silanol-siloxane process, therefore it is suitable for glass, alumina hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide etc. The advantage of titanate coupling agents is that they not only react with hydroxyls, but also 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. Dosage is up to the property required and the filler type used is dependent on its surface area, the larger the surface area, the more Tytan titanate coupling & dispersing agent are needed. As a guide, the general dosage range is 0.2% ~ 2.0% by weight of filler.
