“There’s high customer demand in the printing inks industry for additives that have high wetting, anti-crater, flow, slip, and release efficacy and lowest possible migration,” says Susanne Struck, Head of Market Segment Inks, EMEA & Global Projects. “Our TEGO Rad 2330 is a great product offer that addresses the ongoing needs of this important segment.”
Evonik’s TEGO Rad portfolio of silicone acrylates offers formulators a complete toolbox of solutions to ensure top performance in paints and coatings. These additives for radiation-curing inks and coatings can improve flow, levelling and appearance, as well as prevent cratering and allow formulators to create products with the desired level of slip and flow. Choosing TEGO Rad products with a higher or lower number will result in a different level of slip and compatibility, allowing more precision in their formulations.
Evonik’s Coating Additives business line has a comprehensive portfolio for radiation-curing inks, as well as a wide range of products to enhance high-performing formulations in the automotive, architectural, decorative, marine and other industries.
