FASCAT® 4201

Dibutyltin oxide. Acts as a crosslinking catalyst. It is an active transesterification catalyst for methacrylate esters. It offers energy savings due to lower reaction temperatures, as well as more efficient use of equipment. It forms a stable dispersion for aqueous coating applications and can significantly shorten transesterification production cycle times for specialty acrylate monomers. Used in select high temperature transesterification reactions for the production of coating resins. Can be used in the coatings industry for the preparation of alkyd resins. Also finds significant use in the aqueous cathodic electrodeposition of urethane coatings for automotive and industrial applications. Compliant with FDA status (21 CFR 175.300, 21 CFR 177.2420, and 21 CFR 175.105) for food contact approval.
