Emulsion Polymers
Gellner Industrial is a world leader in the development and production of water-based, acrylic-emulsion polymers. Emulsion polymerization is a widely used technique for producing various industrial products and coatings.
Emulsion polymers are dispersions of polymers in water with a specific particle size. They also fall into the category of colloidal systems, a dispersion of one substance into another that aren’t soluble together. These polymers play a very important role in a variety of coatings and inks, especially primers.
Gellner’s Emulsion Polymers
Gellner Industrial has made a wide range of acrylic emulsion polymers for the paint, industrial coatings, and printing industries, to name a few. Our emulsions have several benefits, such as low emissions and reduced VOCs. Some of our polymers can also impart other benefits when mixed into your coatings, such as protection against microbes and bacteria, and freeze-thaw stability.
