‘Greener is better’ is at the heart of our innovation -
new products will always be greener than what came before.
DELIVERING TRUE INNOVATION
Dispersions … use our expertiseAddivant™ has two centers of expertise for the
preparation and technical support of emulsions
and dispersions: Waldkraiburg, Germany and
Nanjing, China. Our technologists can help develop
the best cost-performance dispersion or emulsion
to meet your exact needs and enquiries to use
our expertise for the benefit of our customers,
are always welcomed. An extensive range of
dispersions is available directly from Addivant™ or
from our global network of partners specialized
in dispersion technology.
Benefits of Addivant’s dispersion technologies:
• Liquid physical form, ease of use
• Improved dosage accuracy
• Finely dispersed additives, which guarantee
efficiency
• Customized particle size and concentration
• Synergistic blends and solutions giving tailored
performance for different applications
• Long term stability
• Improved HSE environment: No dust, no VOC, no
explosion risk
Self-emulsifying technology … greater value for you !A new ‘self-emulsifying’ form (‘SE’) has been
developed for a large number of liquid products
and blends that are used in an aqueous
environment, such as natural or synthetic latex
and the emulsion polymerization of synthetic
elastomers. The SE products do not contain
water, however, they can easily be added to
water or latex. Mild stirring immediately creates
the formation of a stable emulsion. The direct
injection of the SE products into the production
process allows productivity gains as one
handling step is removed.
Benefits from self-emulsifying technology
• Simplified process - as direct injection is possible
• Easier handling and dosage
• Lower costs - no need to ship water/dispersions
around the world
• Lower costs for emulsion preparation; no need
for emulsifiers
• No issues related to emulsion/dispersion stability
and storage
• Improved productivity as mixing is instantaneous
and homogeneous
• Easier dispersion into latex
