SSI ME2115 CERAMIC MICROEMULSION - SOUTHERN SILICONES is an amber translucent liquid designed for use in ceramic applications. It is commonly used in home care products, particularly polishes, providing enhanced performance on ceramic surfaces. The microemulsion formulation offers effective results while maintaining compatibility with ceramic substrates.

METHYL ISOBUTYL KETONE - EASTMAN is a versatile solvent and intermediate, widely used in industrial applications. This biodegradable liquid offers excellent solvent activity with low density and low surface tension. It is compatible with various substrates, including wood, and is effective in processes such as dewaxing and polymer modification.

METHYL ACETATE - EASTMAN is a fast evaporating, mild odor, active solvent that can be used with a broad range of coating and ink resins. Because of its fast evaporation rate, this product is useful as the fast-evaporating component in high-low solvent systems and in other applications where fast solvent release and quick dry-to-touch time are needed. It is an active solvent for the following resins: cellulose acetate butyrate, nitrocellulose, vinyl copolymers, acrylics, epoxies, polyamides, phenolics, alkyds, and polyesters. Compared with other fast evaporating solvents, methyl acetate gives solution viscosity somewhat higher than acetone or MEK but lower than ethyl acetate. Where a mild odor, fast evaporating solvent is required, this product is a very good choice for formulators of coating and ink products. It is a VOC-exempt, non-HAP, non-ODS, readily biodegradable solvent that can be used in blends to develop environmentally friendly cleaners.

EPOTEC YDF 171 - ADITYA BIRLA is general-purpose unmodified Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-F. Although its viscosity is more than EPOTEC YDF 170, the std. bis-F based liquid epoxy resin it is still much lower than std. bis-A liquid epoxy resins and offer advantage in terms of better chemical resistance & flexibility. EPOTEC YDF 171 is compatible with all common epoxy resins in all ratios. A blend of EPOTEC YDF 171 with bisphenol-A based liquid resin has better resistance to crystallization compared to unmodified base resins. Blending of EPOTEC YDF 171 into std. bis-A based liquid epoxy resin brings down viscosity without affecting performance parameters unlike reactive diluent modified resin that affects mechanical, chemical and thermal resistance of the system. A combination of bis-A liquid epoxy, bis-F liquid epoxy and reactive diluent is possible and used in various applications.

TEXANOL ESTER ALCOHOL - EASTMAN is an effective retarder solvent for coil coatings and high-bake enamels. Its unique properties also make it suitable for various specialty applications, including ore flotation/frothing, oil-drilling muds, wood preservative carriers, and floor polishes.

DIISOBUTYL KETONE - EASTMAN is a slow-evaporating, low-density solvent with good activity for various synthetic resins, including nitrocellulose, rosin esters, phenolics, hydrocarbons, alkyds, polyesters, and acrylics. It serves as a retarder solvent to enhance flow and minimize humidity blushing. Its low density and surface tension allow formulators to create high-solids coatings with low VOC content and excellent flow and leveling properties.

EPOTEC YD 128 - ADITYA BIRLA is a liquid bisphenol a diglycidyl ether epoxy resin. It serves as a binder and resin within composite materials, offering applications as resins, binders, and matrix materials. It belongs to the epoxy and epoxy derivatives chemical family.
