Ingevity participates in the European Coatings Show in Nuremburg, Germany, to highlight its Capa® caprolactone high performance polyol technology and the company’s expanded vegetable oil-based offerings that can be used to enhance coating formulations.
Applicable in High-solid and Waterborne Coatings
Ingevity’s engineered polymers team will demonstrate the versatility of Capa® polyols for high solid and waterborne coating applications. Amanda Tosh, coatings application manager at Ingevity, will present a study on the benefits achieved when using polycaprolactone-based polyols in 2K polyurethane coatings. The study explores how Capa® polyols can be used to achieve more sustainable and durable coatings.
“
The versatility and durability of Capa® polyols make them an ideal choice for a number of high-performance polyurethane coating applications,” said Steve Hulme, senior vice president, Performance Chemicals and president, engineered polymers at Ingevity.
“
We look forward to discussing the benefits of Capa®, including showcasing the sustainability benefits of our biodegradable Capa® thermoplastic product range, and its application for the paper coatings industry,” added Hulme.
Ingevity’s industrial specialties team will showcase vegetable oil-based offerings, including the newly launched AltaVeg™ FA 120, a low-color vegetable oil-based fatty acid that can be used for coatings and other applications.
“
We are excited to launch our low-color AltaVeg FA 120,” said Rich White, senior vice president, Performance Chemicals, and president, industrial specialties and pavement technologies at Ingevity. “
Ingevity’s ability to offer vegetable oil-based fatty acid products provides additional options for customers needing stronger, more durable alkyd coatings that maintain high gloss.”
