XenSlickTM

PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

The XenSlickTM product family is designed to introduce hydrophobic properties via alkyl/aryl functionalities whilst improving adhesion properties in various formulations. Specifically, XenSlickTM products excel in the following aspects:

  • Self-emulsification
  • Enhanced surface properties in coatings
  • Defoaming properties
  • Oil in water / water in oil compatible
  • Cold processing ability (e.g. emulsifier in cosmetics formulations)

APPLICATIONS

XenSlickTM compounds can be employed in a variety of applications. We particularly recommend them for/as:

  • Surface protection
  • Cement hydrophobization
  • Emulsifier in water-based emulsions
  • Additive in coatings, lacquers and varnishes to enhance scratch and abrasion resistance
  • Improved surface properties (gloss, friction, surface free energy)
  • Additive for thermoplastic processing, hot melts, etc.

PRODUCT RANGE

XenSlickTM products and their corresponding functionalities include:

  • XenSlickTM M methyl
  • XenSlickTM P propyl
  • XenSlickTM iB iso-butyl
  • XenSlickTM O octyl
  • XenSlickTM iO iso-octyl
  • XenSlickTM R phenyl
