ADD APT Chemicals BV is an independent chemical company based in the Netherlands. ADD APT develop and manufacture high performance, primarily water-based, environmentally acceptable chemicals, thus providing innovative solutions for the coatings, adhesives, lubricants and food industries.
ADDAPT® WaxMul™
ADD APT offer a variety of wax emulsions based on different waxes like carnauba, paraffin & polyethylene wax. The applications depend on the wax type used. For example, carnauba based wax emulsions are excellent release aids, lubricants and scratch resistance additives, whereas paraffin and polyethylene wax emulsions are used for surface effects and water repellency.
ADDISP™ wetting & dispersing additives
ADDISP™ are solvent-free dispersants and co-dispersants for pigment dispersants and fillers used primarily in coatings, inks and adhesives.
Anticor™ and Ferrocor™ Corrosion inhibitors
The Anticor™and Ferrocor™ range of additives protect surfaces from corrosion. Includes anti-corrosives for aluminium, copper, magnesium, brass and ferrous surfaces.
Biomatte™ matting aid
VOC-free additive for matting agent where gloss is undesirable but transparency a must.
BioWet™
The BioWet™ range of biodegradable, non-ionic chemicals are wetting agents used for water-borne or water-based applications. These wetting agents offer reduced static and dynamic surface tensions, some also have FDA compliance for direct and indirect food contact.
CODIS™ co-dispersants & neutralising agents
Cost-effective neutralizing agents and co-dispersants for coatings, lacquers, adhesives and inks. Free of environmental hazard labels and with low odour and VOC content, CODIS™ products are excellent replacements for AMP-95 or Ammonia.
Foamstop™
Foamstops are a range of foam control agents that include water soluble, powdered and VOC-free products that can be used in many applications. For example; VOC-free emulsion systems based on PVAC and acrylics, curtain coatings, emulsion paints and water-based systems.
PEX™
PEX™ are a range of phosphate ester anionic surfactants used in metalworking products for corrosion inhibition of multi-metal protection, emulsification and extreme pressure (EP) additives for lubricating oils, rolling oils and metal cutting & grinding.
PolySurF™
PolySurF™ are functional monomers and additives that are used for UV-curing and emulsion polymerisation. PolySurF™ can be used as adhesion promoters and polymerisable stabilisers. End uses include wet-scrub improvement of emulsions, adhesives, bonding agents, detergents and cleaners.
Tac
ADD APT Tac range of products are tackifiers used to improve the adhesion of oils and lubricants to reduce lubricant splashing. They can be used in metalworking fluids, rust preventatives, spindle oils and hydraulic fluids. Tac products should be added to the formulation at 30-50°C.
