ABRAFATI PREVIEW PAINT&PINTURA | Outubro 2019 | 77 The company will also be present at the sessions presented during the congress. Thiago Faria, Olin’s TS&D for Latin America, will lecture “New Expectations on Water-Based Epoxy Paintings” on October 2, from 1 pm to 1:40 pm, in Auditorium 2. OSWALDO CRUZ QUÍMICA Oswaldo Cruz Química will participate in Abrafati 2019 and will bring a series of releases, including emulsions, additives and alkyd resins; in addition it will showcase the sealant and construction resin portfolio, announces Director Julio Fortunato. “We would like to invite our customers to visit us at the fair, where we will have the opportunity to present our news to the market. The company is turning 35 years old and its main factory is located in Guarulhos (SP), with capacity for 6,000 tons/month of emul- sions, says Fortunato. “We have a quality control laboratory and offices with commercial, financial, PCP and logistics, among other departments. Next to this factory, we have four more storage warehouses, a research & development lab, and technical application labs. We also have a multipurpose factory in Arceburgo (MG) where we produce emulsions and solvent-based acrylic resins; another factory in Montemor (SP), of alkyd resins; and in Piracicaba (SP) where we produce polyester resins. ” OXITENO Oxiteno, a producer of surfactants and chemicals specialties, presents its broad portfolio of solutions for different coating appli- cations and launches Ultrafilm 5000, its new coalescent, reveals Fabiana Marra, Global Business Head for Coatings. “The solution was developed after extensive research and aims to meet the needs of the market and formulators. Designed to be versatile for use in a variety of paint technologies and to have greater compatibility with resins, Ultrafilm 5000 anticipates trends such as low odor, zero VOC and is suitable for all major latex used in architecture paint formulations.” Fabiana also points out that due to the Ultrafilm 5000’s high compatibility, such a product ensures a highly efficient paint film formation. “Thus, the end result is a superior finish and greater water resistance and washability, as well as a lower tendency for leaching and dirt pick up, especially in outdoor application paints.” POLYSTELL Open to the concept of sustainability since 2004, with the pioneering launch of alkalinizing additives - Polysmell OFF (odor reducers - an environmentally friendly alternative), Polystell brings evenmore news to Abrafati 2019. “We highlight: Polyvell 31.330 AD-MASSA - multifunc- tional paste and texture additive that prevents cracking, replaces/eliminates mineral spirit, decreases water absorption, improves abrasion resistance and facilitates application; Polyumec 5999 (plastifier) - ecological and biodegradable additive produced from renewable sources and free from phthalates; Polyadit 41282 (biodegradable polymeric dispersant) - sustainable alternative to polyacrylate-based dispersants, does not absorb substrate salts and does not retain liquid; coalescents - additives with excellent film-forming performance, with a focus on cost reduction, high performance and Low-VOC; titanium chelates - chemical crosslinkers for water-based and solvent-based paints, increase cure and drying speed, providing high yield; and antifoamers - high performance additives based on silicone, vegetable oil and mineral oil. These products are designed specifically for the paint market,” says CEO and Managing Director Wildon Lopes. For Lopes, domestic manufacturers in tune with the global market have been seeking products of this nature. “Customers are increasingly looking for green and consumer-friendly additives.” QUANTIQ At Abrafati 2019, quantiQwill have several new features, both in terms of new companies represented, as well as the launches of those with which it already works. “Of the newly represented, we highlight the Italian company Sapici, manufacturer of polyisocyanates for PU coatings, which has the line Polurgreen in its portfolio, with free-monomer levels below 0.1% and some grades of very low viscosity polyisocyanates,” stresses Technical Coordinator Sergio Rubio. The company will also present Röhm GmbH, which has a stands out line of basic methacrylic monomers for the production of acrylic and methacrylic resins among other products, says Rubio. “With our traditional partners, we will highlight Evonik products in the line of curing agents for epoxy systems. Anquamine 287, a multifunctional product for green concrete treatment and formulation of low-cost, highly resistant cement floorings, and Ancamine 2143, for 3D epoxy floor formulation. In the pigment segment, we will promote our partnership with DCC, which recently joined the American company Lansco. The union of these two companies will allow us to offer a very complete and very high-quality portfolio of organic and inorganic pigments. ”
