Gellner Industrial: New Products

Gellner Industrial is a world-wide leader in the development and production of water-based acrylic polymers, synthetic resins, hydroxyl functional acrylic polymers, and WonderWet, which is a VOC free 100% acrylic solution polymer additive for paints that enables the elimination of ethylene and propene glycol from existing paint formulations. WonderWet allows paint chemists to formulate low or zero-VOC paints without sacrificing open time or performance. Here are some of our new widely-tested and successful products. OTTOPOL SF-45: Furniture Coatings This formulation is a unique polymer that has the ability to cross link at room temperature and is most suitable for its […]

Ottopol KX-99: Fastest and Most Resistant Coating

Ottopol KX-99 is a polymer for water base paint and coatings for concrete you need to know about. Exterior concrete can be a difficult material to coat because it’s easily damages by many harmful elements including UV rays, heavy traffic, and harsh weather conditions. The correct application will protect the concrete from these damaging and costly occurrences and that application is the Ottopol KX-99. The ottopol KX-99 is a hydroxyl functional cationic acrylic solution polymer. Crosslinking can occur at room temperature with 20% polyisocyanates and 20% epoxy silanes. The film will become water resistance in less than an hour. After […]

How Coatings Keep Concrete Uncompromised

It’s difficult to imagine a world without concrete. Our roads, sidewalks, and buildings would be weak and messy. They would be dangerous and virtually unlivable. Additionally, a world without concrete means a world without highways, airports, and even without the Panama Canal and the Hoover Dam.The nature of concrete—the way in which a variety of materials in specific proportions mix to form a complex chemical reaction—makes is hard and strong. In essence, perfect for infrastructure needs.  But despite this nature, it’s actually quite vulnerable. Wearing and abrasion, along with chemicals penetrating its porous surface, corroding rebar, and other environmental factors […]
