Cobalt Drier
Cobalt Drier is a metal-based drying agent primarily composed of cobalt salts (commonly cobalt octoate or cobalt naphthenate). It is widely used as a catalyst to accelerate the drying (oxidative curing) of oils, alkyd resins, and varnishes in coatings and paints. This drier promotes polymerization and cross-linking of unsaturated fatty acids in drying oils upon exposure to air, significantly reducing drying times and improving film hardness and durability. Cobalt driers are essential additives in industrial, decorative, and automotive coatings due to their effectiveness at low concentrations and compatibility with various resin systems.
Cobalt Octoate
Cobalt Octoate is a liquid metal drying agent solution consisting of 10% cobalt octoate dissolved in an organic solvent carrier (typically mineral spirits or similar hydrocarbon solvent). It functions as a highly efficient catalyst to accelerate the oxidative curing and drying of alkyd resins, oils, and varnishes in coatings and paints. By promoting cross-linking and polymerization of unsaturated fatty acids in drying oils upon exposure to oxygen, it significantly reduces drying time and enhances film hardness, gloss, and durability. Cobalt Octoate 10% is widely used in industrial and decorative coatings, inks, and adhesives, valued for its strong catalytic activity even at low concentrations.
Dioctyl Phthalate
Dioctyl Phthalate (DOP), also known as di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), is a widely used plasticizer primarily added to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other polymers to enhance flexibility, durability, and workability. It is a clear, colorless, oily liquid with a slight ester odor. Due to its excellent compatibility with many polymers and long-lasting plasticizing effects, DOP is one of the most common phthalate plasticizers used in industries such as construction, automotive, packaging, and medical devices. It also serves as a solvent and dispersant in various chemical processes.
Ethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether
Ethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether, also known as 2-Ethoxyethanol or Ethyl Cellosolve, is a clear, colorless, and hygroscopic liquid with moderate volatility and excellent solvency. It belongs to the glycol ether family and is widely used as a solvent and coalescing agent due to its ability to dissolve both polar and non-polar compounds. It is miscible with water and many organic solvents and has a moderate boiling point (~135°C). It finds extensive applications across coatings, inks, adhesives, cleaners, and chemical synthesis industries.
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose HPMC
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose HPMC, also known as hypromellose, is a semi-synthetic, non-ionic cellulose ether derived by chemically modifying cellulose through methylation and hydroxypropylation. It is a white to off-white, odorless, tasteless powder that dissolves in cold water to form clear, viscous solutions. HPMC is renowned for its thickening, film-forming, emulsifying, and controlled-release properties. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, construction, and industrial applications due to its safety profile, versatility, and compatibility with various ingredients.
Ink Reducer Ethanol
Ink Reducer Ethanol is a volatile, colorless liquid used to adjust the viscosity, flow, and drying time of printing inks. Composed primarily of high-purity ethanol (ethyl alcohol), it acts as a solvent or diluent in various ink systems—particularly in flexographic, gravure, and screen printing. This reducer enhances printability by improving ink transfer, leveling, and penetration into substrates. Ink reducers based on ethanol are fast-drying and widely compatible with alcohol-soluble and water-alcohol hybrid inks used in packaging, label printing, and paper conversion industries.
Lacitex
Lacitex is a high-quality natural latex concentrate derived from Hevea brasiliensis (rubber tree) latex. It is a milky, white colloidal suspension primarily used in the manufacture of latex-based products such as gloves, adhesives, coatings, and foam rubber. Lacitex offers excellent film-forming properties, elasticity, and tensile strength. It provides superior binding, water resistance, and flexibility in finished products, making it widely valued in various industrial and manufacturing applications.
