Plasticizer for Coatings
SYLVASOLV oils can be used as plasticizers in epoxy and polyurethane-based protective coatings to optimize elasticity, hardness, adhesion to substrates, and dry-film appearance. These oils are a non-flammable, sustainable option to reduce glass transition temperature and increase plasticity and fluidity to enable proper film formation.
Cleaning Solvents
SYLVASOLV oils’ high solvency power performs exceptionally well in cleaning difficult hydrophobic materials such as grease, tar, and other tough soils. These oils find use in various cleaning applications, including degreasers, heavy-duty hand washers, tank, and rail car cleaning, and hard surface cleaners.
Defoamers
SYLVASOLV oils can be used as a carrier for active ingredients in oil-based defoamers, which provide optimum compatibility-incompatibility balance for effective prevention and destruction of foam in various industrial processes. Reduction of foam can allow for more consistent packaging weights, reduce damage to equipment, improve production process and product quality, and reduce defects in surface coatings. Defoamers formulated with SYLVASOLV oils can be applied in many applications, including paint and varnishes.
