BASF Functional Polymers launches new low VOC latex literature needed to achieve high performance for architectural coatings.

BASF has launched a new literature system that is designed to help paint formulators achieve the highest performance possible from their low-to-zero volatile organic compound (VOC) architectural coatings by using BASF’s extensive line of Acronal Optive all-acrylic and Acronal styrene acrylic latex polymers.

Employing the theme – “Opening the door to High Performance at Low VOC”- the new literature system makes it easy for formulation scientists to quickly determine the Acronal Optive* or Acronal* latex polymer needed to achieve high performance as well as meet new, stringent VOC requirements set by state regulatory authorities.

The information system includes the following components:
· A tri-fold pocket brochure that summarizes the full line of acrylic
and styrene acrylic latex polymers for paint;
· Single-page (front & back) technical data sheets;
· 8- to 12-page brochures with detailed performance data;
· Starter formulations;
· A loose-leaf binder to house the collateral system; and, if requested,
· A flash drive containing electronic versions of all print material.

Brochures with detailed performance data are available for Acronal Optive 110, 130, 230, 350, 410, and 510. Technical data sheets are available for Acronal Optive 110, 120, 220, 230, 350, 410, 500 and 600 all-acrylic latex polymers, and for Acronal 296 D, NS 567, and S 760 styrene acrylic latex polymers.

BASF ACRYLIC BINDERS FOR SPECIALTY COATINGS. In addition to BASF's state-of-the-art all-acrylic product portfolio for low-VOC architectural coatings, the company offers a range of resins for specialty applications such as primers, stains, and elastomeric or textured coatings.
