May 8, 2012 (Indianapolis, Indiana) - Celanese Emulsions
presented a range of technologies at the American Coatings
Show to help paint and coating manufacturers more easily
formulate low VOC and low odor products and introduced a
"drop-in" alternative emulsion for vinyl acrylic formulations
with high-scrub resistance. The company has added to its
technology offerings this year to better support paint
manufacturers in their pursuit of the perfect balance of
performance and value across their product lines.
Celanese's featured products at the show include EcoVAE® 401
and 405 vinyl acetate/ethylene (VAE) emulsions, which provide
ultra-low emissions and excellent scrub and stain resistance.
In addition, Avicor® 601 is a 100% acrylic emulsion which can
be formulated into a wide variety of paint formulations with
low VOC. Avicor 601 was also specifically designed to work
with vinyl-based emulsions such as stretching your VAE from
flat to semi-gloss sheens. Celanese also offers architectural
coatings manufacturers another way to achieve low to no VOCs
in their paints, Celvaset™ PL 1000 coalescent, a low odor
product with less than 0.2% VOC.
Celanese's portfolio grew this year with the launch of Avicor
381, a vinyl acrylic emulsion that offers excellent interior
and exterior durability, a balance of flexibility and
hardness and superior scrub resistance. Because it can be
dropped into existing high-scrub vinyl acrylic formulations,
this emulsion delivers versatility and ease of use. It
complements an already rich selection of VAE products
available from Celanese.
According to Brad Moncla, marketing manager for the Americas,
Celanese Emulsions' technologies are helping paint and
coating manufacturers to easily dial in their desired
performance characteristics and VOC profile. "Celanese offers
a multitude of options to the formulator to achieve low VOC
paints including our EcoVAE brand of vinyl acetate/ethylene
emulsions, our new acrylic emulsion, Avicor 601, and the use
of our ultra low VOC coalescent, Celvaset PL-1000 ," said
Moncla. "Customers throughout North and Latin America are
looking for alternatives in today's world and with such an
expansive line of products available from Celanese, they have
flexibility in formulating."
