Eliokem has launched Pliotec SA40,
an APE-free (alkyl phenol ethoxy-
late) carboxylated styrene acrylic
latex. Pliotec SA40 is recommended
for usage in low VOC waterproofing
sealers, concrete sealers, swimming
pool paints and general purpose
primers. This resin provides excel-
lent water, alkali and efflorescence
resistance, according to the company.
Pliotec SA40 also has superior adhe-
sion to concrete substrates. Pliotec
SA40s composition and resulting
minimum film formation tempera-
ture permits the formulation of coat-
ings with VOC levels less than 100
g/l and lower coalescent demand.
X-RITE LAUNCHES RANGE OF MULTI-
ANGLE SPECTROPHOTOMETERS
X-Rite, Incorporated has launched a
new family of multi-angle spec-
trophotometers and advanced quali-
ty control and formulation software
that give manufacturers powerful
new tools to introduce processes,
improve first-time quality and
reduce the time and effort of trou-
bleshooting problems on the factory
floor, according to the company. With
the new MA94/96/98 family, X-Rite
now offers a wider range of solutions
so customers can tailor their invest-
ments by selecting the instruments
that best suit their applications,
measuring anything from the most
basic paints to sophisticated interfer-
ence pigment coatings. The new spec-
trophotometers offer improvements
such as better data repeatability and
a more robust method for measuring
flexible or curved surfaces, and cus-
tomers will be able to utilize the
advanced X-ColorQC software that
comes with the instruments to obtain
more information from data. The
MA94, 96 and 98 instruments all fea-
ture: X-Rites JOBS workflow routine
with both text and visual cues that
instructs the user where measure-
ments need to be collected and
records data for analysis using the
bundled X-ColorQC software; quick
measurement time of about 1 second,
with calculation and display in a
total of 2 seconds; battery-powered
operation that records more than
1,400 measurements per full charge,
in addition to operation from an AC
adapter and data collection via USB
2.0 or wireless data collection via
Bluetooth.
MICHELMAN OFFERS
MICHEM LUBE 190
Michelmam offers Michem Lube 190,
an anionic polyethylene wax emul-
sion additive that significantly
improves the mar and scratch resist-
ance, and water repellency, of archi-
tectural and decorative paints,
stains, sealants and numerous other
interior and exterior coatings,
according to the company. It is com-
monly used in exterior wood coatings
when abrasion resistance is required
along with water beading, and can
provide blocking resistance as well.
This low-VOC surface modifier is
also used in rub resistant high gloss
OPVs and topcoats where water sen-
sitivity is important. It produces
good results at 5% in styrenated
acrylics from 200 to 500 strokes.
PERSTORP LAUNCHES VOXTAR
RENEWABLE PENTAERYTHRITOL
Perstorp has launched Voxtar, renew-
able pentaerythritol platform, which
cuts carbon footprint by 63% com-
pared to fossil-based Penta and Di-
Penta. Based on renewable raw mate-
rials and energy, Voxtar has a signifi-
cantly smaller carbon footprint than
conventional fossil-based Penta prod-
ucts. And while Perstorp Penta is a
product with a reasonable environ-
mental profile compared to many
chemicals, the company has now
improved it even further. The Voxtar
product line shrinks carbon footprint
by up to 63% compared to convention-
al Penta products, all while providing
identical properties and performance,
according to the company In addition,
Voxtar renewability is independently
certified. By combining the renewabil-
ity of Voxtar with the latest water-
borne technology, high-solid alkyd
paints and alkyd emulsion paints
secure superior environmental per-
formance with up to 40% reduction in
carbon footprint compared to tradi-
tional petroleumbased latex paints.
EMERALD KALAMA CHEMICAL
OFFERS K-FLEX PLASTICIZER
Emerald Kalama Chemical has
launched a new plasticizer, Kalama
K-FLEX 850S, to meet the perform-
ance challenges of todays adhesives,
PVC compounds, coatings and other

K-FLEX dibenzoate ester plasticizers
are highly effective, low VOC, non-
phthalate, non-alkyl phenol ethoxy-
late (APE-free) plasticizers that are
compatible with a wide range of poly-
mers including, acrylic, styrene
acrylic, styrene butadiene (SB),
vinyl acetate (PVA), vinyl acetate-
ethylene (VAE), PVC, and plastisol
systems. The product is also environ-
mentally friendly and classified as
non-hazardous under OSHA, as well
as the new UN Globally Harmonized
System of Classification and
Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). CW
