Among the products will be:

• Winnofil™ SPT and Socal® U1S2G ultrafine precipitated calcium carbonates (PCC) promote rheology adhesion and storage stability in hybrid sealants. Socal® U1S2G demonstrates a much lower moisture content than typical PCC grades.
• Its full range of sealant additives improve the mechanical and adhesion properties of primary and secondary insulation glazing units (IGU).
• Its range of engineered talcs enhances reinforcement, barrier properties and adhesion in polyisobutylene primary double-glazing sealants.
• Specialised ground and precipitated calcium carbonates ideal for use in high-performance silicone and polyurethane secondary double-glazing sealants where they give the right balance between extrusion rate and mechanical properties and enhance dispersion.
• Nyglos®, Nyad® and high aspect ratio Aspect® wollastonites are excellent solutions for improving the mechanical properties of structural adhesives.
• Premium ImerSeal™ surface-coated GCC grades 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.
• Its portfolio of mineral solutions for reactive adhesives, structural adhesives, and butyl, latex and acrylic sealants enhance mechanical properties, rheology, shelf-life and adhesion, making end products last longer, and, in some instances, replacing costly and environmentally harmful chemicals.

Marianna Voulgari, Sales Director Rubber & ACS, Imerys Performance Minerals EMEA said: We are very excited to be joining the FEICA Conference and Expo this year and to showcase a solution that enables cost reduction and lower energy consumption while maintaining high performance. This event is also an excellent opportunity to be closer to our customers working together for the future products and present our main innovations for the industry linked to sustainability and improved properties.”
