The products are intended to be used during manufacturing and/or in the application process of unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins. Due to there outstanding compatibility TEGO Antifoam grades can combine high deaeration performance without negative side eects. TEGO Antifoam D 2340 TEGO Antifoam D 2345 Benets: High deaeration/defoaming eciency to prevent foam and bubble formation in production and application processes High compatibility No negative side eects like surface defects as created by other additives Transparent application can be achieved which are important for clear formulations or top layers Ecient for resins of dierent viscosity and styrene content Applications: Casting resins, all types of polyester resins and vinyl esters Thixotropic top layers Unlled and lled systems, e. g. CaCO 3 , hydroxide based ame retardents, glass bers Air bubbles on top without deaerator Fish eyes due to incompatible deaerator 0.2% TEGO Antifoam D 2345 Evonik Industries AG | TEGOPREN / TEGOMER / TEGO Antifoam D | September 2013page 3/4 Dispersing and Antiscratch Dispersing of a variety of llers or glass bers is a demanding requirement in lled UPES and vinylester resins to balance mechanical properties, cost and special proper- ties such as ame retardance is included by that as well. TEGOMER/TEGOPREN dispersing agents allow to increase signicantly the loading level of inorganic llers or prevent lower viscous systems against settlement of high densitiy materials to achieve homogenous layers, e. g. artical marble surfaces for kitchen or labs. To prevent such surfaces or also top layers in other application against undesired loss of quality by scratches those dispersing agents deliver a unique two in one performance to guarantee that. Additionally they deliver internal release characteristics for better demolding of huge parts. TEGOMER A-Si 2322 TEGOMER M-Si 2650 TEGOPREN 6875 Benets of products used as dispersants: Better distribution of llers or ame retardants Higher ller loading for a better cost-eciency combined with enhanced mechanical properties Prevention of settlement of high density materials in lower viscose resins Good demolding/ release properties without appearance of oily surfaces Prevention of warpage of large parts Better handling due to reduced viscosity of lled systems Filler increase with TEGOPREN 6875

High demanding surfaces in the surrounding of kitchens, baths and laboratories require mar and scratch resistance against heavy or spiky goods moved over the surface or against human nails scratching. TEGOMER/ TEGOPREN products implement the desired eect in the formulation and avoid the need for additional top layers. Benets of products used as antiscratch additive: Durable and long-term stable scratch resistance Good demolding/ release properties Prevention of warpage Better chemical resistance and easy to clean surfaces Applications: Grained or plain surfaces High lled systems Unlled top layers Additive recommendation Dispersing and Antiscratch Resin Hardener First Recommendation Second Recommendation Orthophtahalic Resin MEKP TEGOMER M-Si 2650 TEGOPREN 6875 TEGOMER A-Si 2322 Orthophthalic Resin BPO TEGOMER A-Si 2322 TEGOPREN 6875 UPES/ ATH surface without additive Delta L = 4.5 UPES/ ATH surface with 0.4% Tegomer M-Si 2650 Delta L = 0.3 Erichsen equipment for dened scratch evaluation with 10N force applied
