IMERYS: Additives
Among Imerys’ latest multi-mineral product innovations, is the HAR® range of versatile mineral solutions, which enhance reinforcement and barrier properties (no condensation and controlled insulation) of PIB glazing, thanks to its high-aspect-ratio lamellar shape. These high-aspect-ratio talcs are produced using a delaminating process developed by Imerys.
Other mineral solutions for adhesives and sealants from Imerys include:
- Premium ImerSeal™ surface-coated GCC grades, to provide ultra-low moisture content and viscosity, good adhesion and elongation at break in roofing adhesives used for EPDM and concrete bonding as well as to hybrid sealants for extra storage ability and low moisture pick up.
- Socal® U1S2G, which offers low moisture content and better storage stability.
- Socal 312, which is an ultrafine, surface treated precipitated calcium carbonate that provides excellent control of rheological properties like yield value, viscosity and anti-slump behavior. It also contributes to improved physical properties and acts as a reinforcing agent as well as improving processing properties.
- Polwhite™ B, which provides good viscosity stability over time, besides good anti-warpage properties. It is available pre-dispersed in water as well as powder.
