Biesterfeld expands its long-term partnership with Evonik in the field of paints and varnishes. Biesterfeld is now distributing the ACEMATT®, AEROSIL®, AERODISP®, AEROXIDE®, SIPERNAT®, SPHERILEX®, ZEOFREE®, ZEOTHIX® and ZEOLEX® products in Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Croatia and Slovenia.
Additives for Improved Paint Formulations
These innovative silica products from the field of coating additives are crucial in producing paint and varnish formulations. ACEMATT® matting agents are precipitated or fumed silicas, which are suitable for direct use, easy to process and highly efficient. There is no need for high shear forces when processing them as part of paint formulations.
AEROSIL® and
AERODISP® are fumed silicas used for rheology control in various applications; they modify the anti-settle and anti-sag properties of solvent- and water-based paints and varnishes.
SIPERNAT® and
ZEOLEX® are special fillers used as titanium dioxide extenders. SPHERILEX® products help to improve the mechanical durability of wall paints, for example.
“

. “In expanding our collaboration, we are enlarging our portfolio in a targeted way and providing our customers with a comprehensive range of products for paint and varnish applications.”
