Elementis, a prominent provider of specialty chemicals for paint, coatings, and industrial aqueous applications, is pleased to unveil a major advancement in the coatings industry. The company is expanding its production of NiSAT (Non-Ionic Synthetic Associative Thickeners) technology in China. This strategic move aims to bring enhanced performance and environmentally friendly benefits to the Chinese architectural sector and beyond.
Elementis's expansion of NiSAT technology production into China underscores the company's commitment to innovation, sustainability, and growth in the Asian architectural market. This initiative introduces a range of products compliant with eco-label standards, aiming to set new benchmarks for environmental responsibility and performance in the industry.
Elementis' NiSAT technology is well-established in the market, empowering customers to customize their rheology profiles. The comprehensive portfolio, spanning all shear levels (low, medium, and high shear), features acclaimed products like RHEOLATE HX, IF, and CVS Series, along with RHEOLATE Powder NiSAT and the upcoming Biobased NiSAT. This lineup highlights Elementis' commitment to blending superior performance with safer ingredients. The latest NiSAT technology-based products, known for their VOC-, Isothiazoline-, Tin-, and APEO-free formulations, gain an added sustainability edge from this strategic focus.
The NiSAT technology-based solutions provide a range of application advantages. They enhance resistance to spattering, offer exceptional flow and leveling properties, and effectively control sagging for a uniform finish. Benefits in dry film performance include improved paint transfer efficiency, enhanced hiding power, and optimized coverage without the need for overlapping or visible brush strokes. These additives enable advanced formulations that establish a new benchmark for excellence in the architectural paints and coatings industry.
