Patcham (Fairfield, N.J., U.S.) is displaying its additive offerings tailored to resin manufacturers, compound producers and reinforced and non-reinforced fabricators. The company incorporates numerous production methods, as well as gelcoat and colorant producers.
Targeting UPR, epoxy and PU resin manufacturers, Patcham exhibits its custom deaerator, the PAT-Add AF86, as well as its upcoming rheology modification technology, PAT-Add-Rheol 259, which is said to provide storage-stable, efficient, high-index thixotropy.
Suited to filled and compound manufacturers, as well as BMC/SMC fabricators, the company is also displaying its latest viscosity management, anti-settle dispersant, thePAT-Add-DA 2250, optimizes performance even at lower viscosities.
Additionally, the PAT-Add-DA2709 dispersant is on display for putty, mastic and adhesive producers. This production aid provides storage viscosity management in highly filled systems.
Gelcoats and pre-dispersed colorant-focused companies may find Patcham’s DA-3325 and U–7510 of interest for its anti-flocculation and color development capabilities.
Finally, Patcham continues to feature its PAT-Add FW 1065 reinforcement wetting technology. The company is working to validate its performance in virtually all resin technologies and reinforcements, including carbon and natural fibers. Patcham also intends to provide expertise in metal carboxylate accelerator technology, including Co, Cu, Ca, K, Na and Zn. Its Colorless Co. and water white K are also featured.
