ABRAFATI PREVIEW PAINT&PINTURA | Outubro 2019 | 61 AROMAT Aromat highlights in its portfolio themicronizedwaxes of North AmericanMicropowders, reveals Technical Manager Fernando Rosa. “These are high-tech products based on synthetic waxes, polyethylene, polypropylene, PTFE, nylon, amides, polyurethanes, among others, and are available in several particle sizes. The highlight of this wax line is the Microtouch 850XF, which provides special finishes, with a soft touch and high durability to the most diverse paint segments.” The company will also feature rheological modifiers and additives from Elementis, which has a broad product line for a wide range of water-based and solvent-based paints. “We also have Synthomer’s coalescent NX 795, a product that is a benchmark for the decorative paint market. For resin manufacturing, we supply Perstorp’s Polyalcohols: Neopentyl Glycol, Trimethylolpropane and Pentaerythritol. We also have inorganic and organic pigments from Shepherd (USA) - special pigments based on metal complexes. Dynakrom (MEX) - dichromate and molybdate - in addition to iron oxides and various organic pigments. They are quality products with high covering power, excellent reproducibility and tinctorial power, and are essential to paints that require high strength and durability. They are also highly recommended to the plastics segment,” informs Fernando Rosa. ATA TENSOATIVOS ATA Tensoativos has a complete line of additives and surfactants for all types of solvent-based, non-solvent, and water-based paints and pigments, informs Sales Manager José Henrique Fejfar. “As a differential, in addition to offering cost-effective locally made products, we have the professionals and structure to support different needs and applications.” For the 2019 Abrafati, the company’s main releases are the 100%-urethane rheological associative agents of the Surfata MR line, which pro- vide viscosity at both low and high shear rates and can be used in all types of water-based paints, discloses Fejfar. “The main advantages of these additives are: higher resistance to viscosity drop in dyeing with universal concentrates, high ICI viscosity enhancing, excellent KU-ICI viscosity balance, reduced complexity by using single additives, besides improving transfer, leveling and splashing resistance.” BANDEIRANTE BRAZMO BandeiranteBrazmo, amember of the Formitex group, will be present again at Abrafati 2019. “Alongwithour distributedCabot, wewill promote the traditional lineof highperformancepigments, which include special high-tinting, high-dispersion carbonblacks, such as the Emperor 1800 and 2000 water-based, and Emperor 1200 and 1600 solvent-based lines. Other highlights are: the conductive carbon black line of the Vulcan line; UV curing products as well as FDA-approved food contact pigments. Regarding silicas, wewill promote pyrogenic silicas; hydrophilic, hydrophobic, hydrophobic andpyrogenic aluminaof theSpectrAl line, aswell as Cab-O-Sperseaqueous dispersions,” saysMarketManager JoséCarlosMenezes. With the distributed Olin, Bandeirante Brazmo will feature the liquid epoxy resin DER331LCO, transparent product, suitable for various applications, points out Menezes. “We will also promote water-based epoxy resins and catalysts with outstanding technology and low VOC environmental appeal. On the other hand, with the distributed Dowwe will promote the high performance surfactants for acrylic emulsions used in decorative paints. Kamin/CADAMwill showcase the Kamin 300C. It’s a high matting calcined kaolin, suitable for high PVC inks, which increases wet and dry coating and also helps improve washing. And Lucite/Dianal will promote hybrid acrylic powder resins, which can be used in water-based and solvent-based industrial and flexographic inks, such as PB204 and R2669. We will also introduce TB310 resin, which gradually increases the adhesion of graphic inks to hard-to-anchor substrates such as PE and PP resins.” BASF At Abrafati 2019, BASF will launch Foamaster MO 2159. It’s an emulsified antifoamer ideal for high PVC paints, says Marlon Braidott, BASF’s Additives Technical Advisor for South America. “We will also be promoting recent developments such as the Rheovis HS 1184 - low shear rheology modifier, APEO-free, with high thickening power, suitable for pastes and textures; Besides Acronal PRO 770 and Joncryl PRO 1524, acrylic dispersions for anti-corrosion paints with primer and finish or dual function properties, also called DTM (direct to metal). In addition, we will bring the entire portfolio of dispersions, resins and additives for each segment. With the customer in mind, the lecture ‘Increasing Performance, Not Costs’ will be presented, which demonstrates how the use of high performance additives contributes to superior perfor- mance formulation and lower total cost.” BASF will also promote TBA (Tertiary Butyl Acrylate), which can be used in acrylic dispersions and/or emulsions for the premium pure acrylic paints segment as well as products manufactured in Camaçari (BA) and Guaratinguetá (SP), as butyl acrylate, acrylic acid and 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate, says Valter Milani, senior sales manager for petrochemicals at BASF. “TBA Specialist Christoph Fleckenstein will be visiting us during
