Additives for Architectural Coatings

catalog

The range of decorative coatings covers interior wall paints, decorative wood and metal coatings as well as external coatings for facades and road marking paints.
In addition, pigment concentrates for tinting systems (both point-of-sales and in-plant tinting) are an essential part of the range of applications and related binder systems.
From clear coats to highly filled paints, BYK offers special additives that comply with legal requirements for both aqueous and solvent-borne systems. There is an extensive additive portfolio for decorative and architectural coatings.
Wetting and dispersing agents are just as important as defoamers, rheological and surface additives.

Learn more about ANTI-TERRA

ANTI-TERRA is one of BYKs trade names for wetting and dispersing additives. Wetting and dispersing additives stabilize pigments (inorganic, organic and also effect pigments) and fillers. Wetting agents are surface-active substances and improve the wetting of solids. Dispersing agents prevent particles flocculating by various mechanisms (electrostatic effects, steric effects). Wetting and dispersing additives unite both mechanisms of action in one product, i.e. they are both wetting and stabilizing. ANTI-TERRA are mainly used to support anti-separation and anti-settling properties of formulations.
