CYCO-GEL
®

Product:   

A novel proprietary naphthenic-based liquid aluminium acylate product designed to provide superior processing control in the production of printing ink varnishes.
 

Typical Properties:

 
  Appearance:   Clear fluorescent yellow-green liquid
  Aluminium Content:   8.2 - 9.0%
  Density:   8.6 lb. / gallon
  Flash Point:   128o F PMCC
 

Application / Use:

CYCO-GEL ®    is  formulated to maximize yield values at optimal viscosities in gelled varnishes. 

OAO

Product: Oxyaluminium octoate

Recommended as a superior gelling agent for increasing the viscosity of ink varnishes without increasing tack. Yields improved gloss.

Description: OAO is a yellow, viscous liquid, soluble in the usual ink solvents.

Aluminium Content:         8.0 - 8.8%

May be used in same manner as AIE-M and other aluminium alkoxides (described in Technical Data Bulletin TDA-2).

Flash Point:         1330 F, TCC Method.

OAO-HT

Product: A unique reactive aluminium octoate product for use in varnish gelling applications and gelling of certain paraffinic oils.

Typical Properties:

 
  Appearance:   Clear, free-flowing amber liquid
  Aluminium Content:   7.8 to 8.2%
  Flash Point:   224o F TCC
 

Application / Use:

OAO-HT is a modified oxyaluminiuim octoate designed to be added, undiluted, to hot vehicles without causing seeding. OAO-HT can be used as a primary gellant or with other compatible gel agents for gel control or post-add adjuster. OAO-HT is recommended as a superior gellant for adjusting the viscosity of printing inks and ink vehicles without increasing tack.

AIE-M

Product: Aluminium Diisopropoxide Acetoacetic Ester Chelate

Properties:   Straw colored liquid.

                  Soluble in hydrocarbon-type solvents.

                  Approximate Density: 8.6 lbs/gal.

                  Flash Point: 122o F, PMCC Method.

KETALIN ® - 4F

Product: A novel, highly reactive, chelated aluminium alcoholate designed for extensive viscosity development in alkyd systems.

Typical Properties:

 
  Appearance:   Clear, viscous amber liquid
  Aluminium Content:   5.0 to 5.2%
  Density:   7.5 pounds per gallon
  Flash Point:   154o F PMCC
 
Application / Use:

KETALIN ® - 4F is designed for use in thickening alkyd ink formulations where extensive viscosity development and "shortness" in the gelled product is desired. KETALIN ® - 4F, like the other KETALIN ®  products, shows highly superior stability to humidity and air exposure and, based on similar aluminium content, a higher reactivity than other aluminium gellants. KETALIN ® - 4F can be used as an adjusting agent, supplanting the use of other additives.
