Unique Silicone Resins Technology perfected over several decades created a line of silicone resins with unique performance features. Silicone based Resins Silicone Resin KR-220L

Solid silicone resin consisting of 100% active content. Available in flake or powder form. Heat-cured resin, and because it is a liquid at temperatures between 80°–150°C, it can be used without a solvent. Can be used to make binders and powder coatings. And because it dissolves in toluene and isopropyl alcohol, KR-220L offers a great number of possibilities in the ways it can be used. ●Dry Blend ●Solution Blend KR-220L KR-220L

Ultra High Molecular Weight Silicone Resin KR-251

KR-251 is a methyl silicone resin with a very high molecular weight. Due to its excellent film-forming ability, KR-251 forms coatings with just a simple drying process. In addition, because it contains D units, KR-251 forms coatings that resists cracking even after heat-curing. ●Model of Coating Structure Common Grade Silicone Resin KR-251 High molecular weight Low molecular weight

: Alkoxy Groups : Methyl or Methyl / Phenyl Groups

Cross linking system Product Lineup With a range of silicone oligomers and curing agents to choose from, the user has a great degree of control over the cure speed, hardness, or flexibility of the cured coating. With silicone oligomers, the degree of polymerization and ratio of 3D crosslinking (T Units) to 2D crosslinking (D Units) will influence such properties as curing speed and the hardness and/or flexibility of the coating. For example, by combining a methyl silicone oligomer with a lesser proportion of a phenyl oligomer, a coating with enhanced flexibility and glossiness is produced .

3.Length of siloxane chains can be controlled

Shorter chains: Better compatibility with resins, solvents, lower surface tension and improved flow properties.

Longer chains: May be incompatible with resin, solvents, and produce hammertone Length of Siloxane Main Chain effects (cissing).

Features Provided by the Organic Reactive Groups Compatibility with organic resin solutions. Surface tension can be controlled by changing the type of organic functional group.

Type Features

Organic groups consisting of chains of repeated ethylene oxide units (EO) or propylene oxide units (PO), or a combination of the two. Polyether A high proportion of EO units translates to strong hydrophilicity and water solubility, and good compatibility with acrylic and urethane resins. A high proportion of PO units translates to strong hydrophobicity.

Polyol Organic groups having a relatively compact structure with large numbers of hydroxyl groups. Silicone rich, and yet strongly hydrophilic with high polarity. Organic groups composed of acrylic polymers. Have good film-forming ability and compatibility with acrylic resins. Acrylic

Fatty acid ester Organic groups with the same basic structure as alkyd resins.Highly compatible especially with alkyd resins. Highly compatible with resins having large numbers of aromatic rings (e.g. epoxies). Phenyl Because they are hydrophobic, these groups have poor compatibility with hydrophilic resins. Organic functional Silicones dissolve very well in aromatic solvents and thus show little activity in aromatic solvent-based paints. group Fluorine Fluorine modification will produce an agent with a surface tension-reducing and defoaming effect in aromatic solvent-based paints and coatings. Poor compatibility with many resins means there can be a risk of cissing or other problems.

Alkyl Introducing alkyl or aralkyl groups will produce an additive with balanced performance and higher Aralkyl hydrophobicity. Organic groups composed of polyester polymers. Higher molecular weights than most other organic groups. Polyester Have good film-forming ability and particularly good compatibility with polyester paints and coatings.

30 Surface Modifiers Surface Modifiers for for Pigments & Fillers Pigments & Fillers Spherical Silica Fine Particles

Spherical Silica Fine Particles are extremely small and have a narrow particle size distribution. Particle surfaces have been treated to be extra hydrophobic. The particles thus have excellent dispersibility, water repellency, lubricity, flow properties, and can be added to other powders, in a dry process, to improve those powder's performance. Spherical Silica Fine Particles can be used with organic pigments and fillers as well as inorganic ones.
