Titanium Dioxide (Rutile)

Titanium dioxide is a high-performance white pigment that enhances brightness, opacity, and UV resistance in coatings. It provides excellent hiding power, ensuring vibrant and consistent colour retention. Its light-scattering properties improve paint durability and weather resistance, making it an essential component in architectural and industrial paints.

Hydrocarbon Resin

Hydrocarbon resin is a tackifying agent that improves paint adhesion, gloss, and durability. It enhances binding strength between coatings and surfaces, ensuring better mechanical resistance and longevity. This resin is widely used in protective coatings, traffic paints, and industrial finishes, where strong adhesion is required.

Antifoaming Agent

Antifoaming agents prevent foam formation during paint mixing, application, and drying. By controlling air entrainment, they improve film uniformity and surface smoothness, reducing pinholes and defects. These agents are essential in high-speed production lines and water-based coatings, ensuring optimal application efficiency.

Acrylic Emulsion

Acrylic emulsion is a synthetic latex binder used in water-based paints. It provides excellent adhesion, flexibility, and water resistance, ensuring long-lasting coatings. Its fast-drying and low-VOC properties make it a preferred choice for eco-friendly paints, decorative finishes, and industrial coatings.

Methyl Cellulose

Methyl cellulose is a rheology modifier and thickening agent that controls paint viscosity and flow behaviour. It improves application consistency, film build, and resistance to sagging, ensuring better spreadability and surface coverage. This additive is commonly used in emulsion paints, textured coatings, and primers.

Polycarboxylate

Polycarboxylate is a dispersing and grinding aid that enhances pigment distribution and paint fluidity. It prevents particle flocculation, ensuring better colour development and stability. This additive is crucial in high-quality paints, providing smooth application and improved levelling properties.
