Our additives improve the performance of various paper coatings, including thermal paper, packaging, inkjet receptive and speciality coatings. Applied by curtain coating for exceptional results, our water-based solutions offer environmental benefits with low VOC content. These additives improve coating properties to ensure optimal results for your paper applications.
Silane compounds from Evonik's DYNASYLAN® portfolio optimize paper coatings. They provide food packaging with hydrophobic and oleophobic properties to protect against moisture and oils. In printed material, silanes ensure a uniform and durable coating that enables optimal ink absorption and color reproduction. Improved mechanical properties make coated papers become more flexible and resistant.
VISIOMER® Specialty Methacrylates for Paper Coatings
Coating is an important lever for improving paper quality. Key properties, such as print quality, surface protection and increased resistance can all be improved with specific coatings. By varying the formulation, researchers can tailor the properties of coatings to meet specific requirements. VISIOMER® Amino Methacrylates, e.g. VISIOMER® MADAME and VISIOMER® DMAPMA provide superior adhesion properties, ensuring that coatings bond effectively to various substrates, resulting in improved durability and performance. VISIOMER® Terra C13-MA and VISIOMER® Terra C17,4-MA enhance the flexibility and water resistance of the final coating, making it resistant to cracking and peeling under stress. VISIOMER® SR FM 006 could bring brilliant stain resistance, water resistance and certian oil resistance to the final paper coatings.
VISIOMER® Specialty Methacrylates is committed to sustainable solutions for PFAS alternatives , e.g. VISIOMER® Terra C13-MA, VISIOMER® Terra C17.4 MA, are designed with sustainable principles in mind. They are formulated to minimize environmental impact while maintaining high performance. By utilizing renewable raw materials, our products help reduce carbon footprints and promote a circular economy in the paper coating industry.
Acrylamide copolymers containing amino methacrylates, such as VISIOMER® MADAME and VISIOMER® DMAPMA, are suitable as retention agents in papermaking. In (weakly acid) pulp suspensions, such polymers are present as cationic polyelectrolytes improving retention in the draining of pulp during the paper making process. Their efficiency can be tuned across a wide spectrum via the molecular weight and content of amino groups. Besides their role as retention agents, they ensure rapid suspension dewatering. The copolymers of our quaternized amino methacrylate monomers VISIOMER® TMAEMC and VISIOMER® MAPTAC act as retention and dewatering agents as well. In their capacity as ‘genuine’ polyelectrolytes, they perform these duties in the acid as well as in neutral range.
