Silicone Additives
Improve performance, processing and productivity
High performance silicone and siloxane additives can help you produce better paints, coatings, printing inks and overprint varnishes more easily and cost effectively.
Designed for versatility
Our additives work for solvent-borne, water-borne, solventless and radiation cure systems. They are compatible with a wide array of binder systems and diluents. Many offer multiple benefits, and all are effective at low concentrations.
