Reactive emulsifiers for the manufacture of water-resistant binders – Emulsogen® CPA 100 XS and Emulsogen® CPN 100 XS

Clearly evident

Reactive emulsifiers can be anchored to polymeric binders to prevent emulsifier migration and its adverse effects on paint performance and the environment.

When emulsifiers leach out of a polymeric film, it turns from clear to white and adheres less well to substrates. In the applied paint, this translates to impaired water resistance and aesthetic defects such as snail trails.

With Emulsogen® CPA 100 XS and Emulsogen® CPN 100 XS, we solve these issues.

The binders made with Clariant’s emulsifiers are clear and flawless. The binder with the alternative turns turbid almost immediately.

Even after 6 hours, the binder with Clariant’s emulsifiers is still clear compared to the alternative.
