VeoVa™ vinyl ester monomer, a Versatic™ Acids & Derivatives product from Hexion is one of the key components in a new specialized hybrid polymer technology developed by ADDAPT Chemicals BV for the paint and coatings industry. The Addapt VeoPoxTM products are novel adhesion promotors for use in various technologies and substrates, offering improved adhesion and corrosion protection.
Novel Adhesion Promotor Range
ADDAPT Chemicals BV, an independent chemical company located in the Netherlands, leveraged
Hexion’s VeoVa™ vinyl ester monomer as a reactive diluent, to develop a novel adhesion promotor for, among others, DTM (direct to metal) systems. VeoPox
TM significantly increases adhesion and anti-corrosion properties.
The synergistic effects of the VeoPox
TM hybrid polymer systems enables formulators to develop new higher performance systems, overcoming limitations and shortcomings of existing polymer systems. The VeoPox
TM range is applicable for epoxy, alkyd and acrylic binder systems, both solvent and waterborne.
Corrosion Protector for Protective Coatings & Industrial Paints
“Hexion was pleased to cooperate with ADDAPT Chemicals BV to facilitate developing the novel VeoPox
TM range, to create an excellent adhesion promotor and corrosion protector for the protective coatings and industrial paints industry,” said Harold Schweitzer, Vice President and General Manager, Versatic™ Acids & Derivatives.
“Importantly, the VeoPox
TM range enables customers to develop state of the art technologies that meet the growing need for more sustainable solutions in response to recent stringent legislation in Europe, combined with excellent physical properties of the coating.”
