TANACOAT KP / TANACOAT KS / TANACOAT RS

TANACOAT KP is a medium hard polyester based urethane which has a very high adhesion towards polyester and very good flexibility but rigid enough to give the article a certain stiffness. Therefor it will be applied as a basecoat. It has a relatively low melting range, which makes it suitable to be used for different heatseal applications, like PVC. TANACOAT KS is almost comparable with TANACOAT KP. It is a little harder and has a dull surface, which makes it suitable to be applied as dull, flexible topcoat with low

“writing” effect. It also has a good adhesion towards polyester and PVC. TANACOAT RS is a very rigid, aliphatic polyester based urethane with very high heat resistance (250 °C). This coating will result in a dull surface optic.

EDOLAN RF

EDOLAN RF is an aqueous polyurethane dispersion for coating and impregnation of textiles and nonwovens. It is a fully co-solvent free dispersion with high scratch resistance, dry surface with good slip properties and high light fastness and UV resistance. It shows very good hydrolysis resistance and can be diluted with/in water in any ratio. It has good running properties in foulard applications and is crosslinkable with melamine- or isocyanate crosslinkers for further improved performance.

Printing

RESPUMIT 3301

Antifoam for aqueous coating pastes and textile printing pastes. Aqueous coating pastes and pigment printing pastes are prone to foam formation. Consequently, foam formation must be suppressed by adding antifoams when pastes are produced. Pastes containing RESPUMIT 3301 remain free of foam even after long coating or printing processes. This product is very effective in high viscosity coating pastes and is also suitable for the prevention of foam formation in printing pastes for dyestuff printing. It is not suitable for use in aqueous liquors. It shows high efficacy and long-lasting effects.
