Liquid dyes have the same chemical characteristics as tradtional powder dyes also manufactured by Ming - Zu. To meet rising global concern to limit the exposure of hazardous heavy metal and organic substance to our environment and the risk to human beings, Ming-Zu has developed "Heavy Metal Free" and "Dyes for water based wood coating" . Both series of products meet the newly issued American and European envronmental regulations. Ming Zu Chemical Industry Ltd, specialises in the manufacturing of metal complex solvent dyes under the brand name of MECO FAST COLORS. These dyes are characterised by their vibrant colour, superb light fastness, excellent solubility, and high compatibility in solvents and resins. Due to the world-wide environmental demands, Ming-Zu have developed HEAVY METAL FREE DYES.

Surfactants for paints and coatings. » Zikasorb UV absorbers » Esacote Polyurethane Dispersions » Surfex 2004       PETRORESIN C9 Hydrocarbon Resin is manufactured by Yuen Liang from their own refined feedstock. PETRORESIN synthetic hydrocarbon resin is made by polymerising mixtures of unsaturated monomers such as olefins, diolefins and aromatic vinyl compounds obtained as by products from the steam cracking of liquid natural gas, gas oil, and petroleum napthas. PETRORESIN is a low molecular weight thermoplastic polymer. You can visit the Yuen Liang site here http://www.ylicl-petroresin.com  Applications. Paint: PETRORESIN is compatible with alkyd and phenolic resins and most industrial solvents, especially aromatic and aliphatics. In paints and varnishes it reduces cost, speeds drying, increases hardness and gloss. Reduces viscosity in high solids coatings. Printing Inks: PETRORESIN is a neutral polymer which does not react with pigments. It improves printability, alkali resistance, and improves abrasion resistance. Adhesives: PETRORESIN is very compatible with such polymers as EVA commonly used in this industry. Good thermal stability and cost effectiveness makes PETRORESIN ideal for use as a tackifying resin in pressure sensitive tapes, hot melt and contact adhesives. Rubber: PETRORESIN is particulary suited as an additive in natural and synthetic rubber, especially SBR. PETRORESIN simplifies the processing and moulding operations and improves green tack and mechanical reinforcement. Construction: PETRORESIN is compatible with floor tile adhesives to give the floor excellent water proofing, alkali and abrasion resistance.

For more information please see http://www.esacol.com/ UV Absorbers Zikasorb series is a light stabiliser classified as a formamidine class UV absorber especially effective in PU polymer systems to prevent degradation. For more information please see http://www.e-ziko.com and http://www.e-ziko.com/eng/chemical/default.asp  ZIKO has achieved new heights of excellence through ZIKASORB series, a group of liquid type industrial UV stabilizers. ZIKO began an intense effort in developing an industrial UV stabilizer in early 1995 and successfully commercialized ZIKASORB series by the end of 1997. The driving force behind the research and development was the strong need for a robust UV stabilizer that could be differentiated from other conventional products. In fact, ZIKASORB series has its roots in the UV absorber of formamidine class, which has a whole new chemical structure distinguished from the conventional benzophenone and benzotriazole UV absorbers. Since the first introduction of ZIKASORB series, ZIKO has constantly been adding new ideas and products into ZIKASORB series each year. Further, on top of the production of ZIKASORB Series, ZIKO has strengthened its customer service by providing a comprehensive range of performance chemicals.

Products can be supplied from a comprehensive range or tailor made to specification. Technically qualified staff are available to advise on how to obtain optimum results from the high quality products. Product regulations are strictly adhered to, and quality strictly controlled to a high standard. Non oxidised PE Emulsions: Contain low levels of Stabiliser with better water resistance than oxidised PE. Oxidised PE Emulsions: Made by emulsification of molten wax. e.g. Novasperse HD10. The rapidly growing customer list confirms the confidence shown in the products, described under the following sections; Some typical application area's are: Textile Industry    Softener    Sewability improvement    Water repellency Paper Industry       Barrier coatings for water, water vapour and grease.          Heat sealing          Release and anti blocking properties       Surface gloss Wood, chip- and fibreboard industry    Hydrophobing        Waxed woods Coating, Paint and Ink industry        Anti blocking properties              Gloss improvement Improvement of rub resistance     Water resistance   Zirconium Cross-linking Agents Crosslinkers are used in a wide variety of application area's. The main purpose is always to improve the coating properties. A few examples of coating properties which can be improved are the (wet) durability, tear strength, fastness, hydrophobicity and rub resistance.  Our zirconium based crosslinkers are used for example as insolubilizer for paper coatings, durability improvers of water based paints and to reduce formaldehyde levels in formaldehyde based resins by switching to formaldehyde free systems in combination with zirconium based crosslinkers.  To learn more about the principle of our zirconium based crosslinkers, click on the Explanation link. Or click on Overview to learn more about the Allinova crosslinkers product range.   Photochromic & Thermochromic Pigments         Photochromic products change colour when exposed to sunlight\UV source and revert back to original colour when sunlight\UV is dimmed or blocked. Thermochromic pigments change colour on increase in temperature going from colour to clear. They will revert to original colour once the temperature is decreased. Temperature range -15°C to 70°C. Also available in aqueous slurry for coatings and inks Available in microcapsule form for plastics, coatings and inks. Long lasting Glow in Dark Materials Glow in the dark materials can absorb and store light/heat energy, then glow in the dark. They can be recharged and continue glowing unlimited times as long as they get recharged sufficiently. The materials can be recharged faster by exposure to sunlight/UV light Black Light Material Black light materials absorb UV/black light and then emit colorful fluorescence almost instantaneously. Light energy gets released very fast in the process. Thus when the black light is dimmed or blocked, the materials stop emitting fluorescence immediately.
