Worlée-Chemie at this year's ECS 2015

Whether on construction sites, in factories, in office buildings or even in individual homes, the products of Worlée-Chemie GmbH may be found everywhere that high-quality paints and coatings are in use. With an extensive selection of additives, binders and pigments, the northern German company delivers chemical raw materials that are notable for their flexibility and are produced with the most modern production facilities in an environmentally-friendly manner. At this year’s European Coatings Show from 21 to 23 April, Worlée will present its innovative raw materials in the areas of industrial paint and decoration at its Stand 7-534. Further, Worlée will feature numerous products from well-known business partners.

For the industrial paint field, the northern German team has developed WorléeCryl VP A 2545, a low-viscosity styrene-acrylic resin. In the production of top-quality 2K top coats with high solids content, this product clearly demonstrates its many strengths, such as a high level of chemical resistance and a very good degree of cross-linking, to name just two. WorléeCryl VP A 2117, on the other hand, enables formulations of quick-drying, high-solids primers as well as top coats or single-layer coatings. The new polyesterpolyols of the WorléeRes E line are for use in Can & Coil coatings as well as in high-quality 2K polyurethane coatings.

In the area of decoration, Worlée offers the low-viscosity, air-drying, acrylic alkyd resin WorléeKyd AC 6030 for painters’ varnishes and paints as well as for industrial paints. Due to its minimal levels of viscosity, this product is suitable to be used both alone and as a combination binder, and it is particularly noteworthy for its high levels of resistance to weather and yellowing. When instead a water-based, cationic acrylate copolymer dispersion for insulating wall paints is required, WorléeCryl 7745 is a top option.

For many years now, Worlée has put a special focus on sustainability. With WorléeSol VGT 8709, the chemical company now offers a solvent-free alkyd emulsion in its product range. WorléeSol VGT 8709, manufactured with 97 percent renewable raw materials, is particularly suitable for water-dilutable painters’ varnishes and paints as well as for industrial paints, wall paints and wood varnishes. The alkyl resin WorléeKyd RL 1290, on the other hand, is especially suitable for the production of 1 and 2K parquet, terrace and care oils with low VOC levels. It consists of 95 percent renewable raw materials.
 
Likewise, Worlée’s other partner companies have also introduced high-quality new products this year. Co-exhibitor Bruno Bock Thiochemicals has extended its line of polythiol products to include the trifunctional THIOCURE® TEMPIC as well as the tetrafunctional THIOCURE® PCL4MP 1350, a polymer polythiol on a polycaprolactone basis. The company KING is presenting tin-free catalysts for siloxane and polyurethane systems, catalysts that work at lower temperatures and can contribute to energy savings as well as modification resins that allow for even thinner coatings. The glycidyl-functional matting hardeners Isocryl EP-540 and Isocryl EP-575 are new from the company Estron. These products have been specially developed for powder coating finishes with good resistance to outdoor conditions (for formulations with a matte glaze as well as for those with a medium gloss).
