Clariant featured two complete color ranges of pigment preparations in Booth 429 at the Western Coatings Show 2017 (Oct. 15-17): Hostatint UV and Hostatint A 100-ST. 

  • Hostatint UV – a range of high-performance, easy-to-use colorants for UV cured wood coatings to support the trend for colored UV systems. The ready-to-use tinters are suitable for both interior and exterior coatings and cover the full color spectrum in opaque and transparent applications for dual and 100 percent UV systems.
  • Hostatint A 100-ST – a range of nine highly-transparent pigment preparations that offers the entire color circle to solvent-based paint systems. The super-transparent preparations support the eye-catching metallic and mineral effects as well as new shades for surface and contour enhancements so desired for today’s lifestyle products
Clariant said it underlines its commitment to the U.S. coatings industry with a  portfolio of waxes (Ceridust, Licocene, Licowax), light stabilizers (Hostavin), anti-oxidants (Hostanox) and non-halogenated flame retardants (Exolit).

At the Western Coatings Show, Clariant showcased:
  • Clariant’s EcoTain-awarded wax additives Ceridust 8090 TP and Ceridust 8091 TP, which are 100 percent bio-based renewable raw materials for water-based formulations that offer anti-slip effects to wood coatings with outstanding scratch resistance;
  • Innovative and halogen-free Exolit AP flame retardant grades based on premium quality ammonium polyphosphate;
  • Hostavin 3070 DISP and Hostavin 3070 P;
  • Hostavin TB-03 liq, which the company said delivers a high performance synergistic combination of UV absorber and radical scavenger (HALS) free of Toluene and Xylene. 
Clariant’s also had a conference presentation entitled “Architectural Coatings – How to Meet Durability, High Chroma & High Opacity Challenges” on Oct. 16 at 10:50 am.
