DOWSIL 2080 Resin:
DOWSIL 2080 Resin is a solventless liquid silicone resin that chemically reacts with organic resins to create silicone-organic copolymers. Its unique structure and low self-condensation tendency make it suitable for solventless processes, resulting in solid silicone-organic copolymers. These copolymers serve as high-quality binders for heat-resistant powder coatings, offering improved appearance. Unlike traditional coatings, which blend flake silicone resin and solid organic resin, DOWSIL 2080 Resin overcomes incompatibility issues. When used as a binder, it produces a high-quality coating with excellent leveling, gloss, and maintains heat-resistant performance.

RHOBARR 135 Barrier Coating:
RHOBARR 135 Barrier Coating is a waterborne latex designed for paper and paperboard coatings in food packaging applications. This versatile emulsion is compatible with existing aqueous coating or printing methods and suitable for use in high-temperature applications such as ovens and microwaves. RHOBARR 135 provides excellent barriers to hot oil, grease, and fatty acids, block resistance, and film flexibility to maintain performance after folding. RHOBARR 135 is produced without intentional addition of fluorocarbons and provides users with a certified repulpable and recyclable solution to address market needs for safer and more sustainable oil and grease resistant food packaging.

DOWSIL TC-6032 Thermally Conductive Encapsulant:
