BRB offers technologies designed to address key requirements of paint and ink manufacturers. Under its Siloen® brand, BRB offers resins for high-temperature resistance and additives to support wetting, levelling, slip, mar resistance, and foam control. Silanil® silanes can be used to promote adhesion and to facilitate bonding between organic and inorganic materials, helping to enhance mechanical properties.
Silicone-based technologies offer a range of functionalities for coatings and inks, including:
- High-temperature resistance
- Corrosion protection
- Substrate wetting
- Levelling and flow
- Low coefficient of friction and slip
- Antiblocking and release properties
- Foam control and air release
- Water repellency
Silane technology can contribute to coatings and inks through:
- Substrate adhesion
