FR EN MENU Sector Construction Construction materials represent a major sector for the chemical industry. PROTEX INTERNATIONAL is fully committed to optimising the energy consumption of buildings and improving the comfort of the inhabitants, providing product ranges which allow building materials to take on new functions. Our range of SYTHRO®STAB TF additives help reduce aldehyde-type VOC emissions, improving indoor air quality and protecting the health of the residents. Our SYNTHRO®NYL additives improve the safety of bio-sourced construction materials, enhancing their fire-proofing and improving the fire safety of the building as a whole. Product List Building and Construction New products PROX®LTQS PROX®LTQS is a high performance water-based polymeric additive. This product can be added to organic-based systems, including renders, coatings and adhesives commonly used in the construction industry to accelerate drying and increase early rain resistance. Thanks to its compatibilit, PROX®LTQS can be post-added to an existing formulation. Click to download the file SYNTHRO®-PEL WA 494 SYNTHRO®-PEL WA 494 is a water repellent which can be easily incorporated into plaster, primer and varnish formulations. As it is a modified acrylic polymer, it will not modify the inter-layer adhesive properties. What’s more, it will not cause yellowing in outdoor applications and gives an excellent beading effect when applied to brick-like materials. Applications PROTEX INTERNATIONAL has developed a range of additives which can be used to formulate a huge number of products for the construction market, in particular the following fields : ETICS, (External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems) mortars plasterboards primers insulation materials liquid waterproofing systems glues OUR FUNCTIONALITIES Adhesion promoter Additives which improve the adherence of a formulation (adhesives, paints, etc.) on a substrate Corrosion inhibitor Additives which help to prevent corrosion Defoamer and air release Additives which prevent or destroy any foaming which can appear during the manufacture or application of a product. Dispersing Additives which help disperse and stabilize pigments in paints or solid particles in a liquid formulation during the manufacturing process. They can also be used to disperse fertlizers in watr-based formulations. Fire retardant Additives which enhance fire resistance Levelling Additives which help improve the surface aspect of a paint or any other liquid formulation Odour masking agent An additive which helps mask or eliminate bad smells Resin A polymer which provides the desired mechanical properties to a formulation. Rheology Additives which help control the rheology of a formulation. Sequestrant Additives which react with free Ca/Mg ions and metallic ions and prevent them from negatively impacting product performance, appearance or stability. Sliding An additive which gives textile fibres a slippery surface Stabiliser, Buffer Additives which help stabilise a formulation or pH VOC scavenger Additives which absorb or prevent the release of VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) such as formaldehydes and acetaldehydes. Water-repellent Additives which help make a substance water-repellent, creating a protective film. Wetting Additives which, by modifying the surface tension of a formulation, improve the wetting effect of pigments, loads or even substrates Star products PROX®-LTQS PROX®LTQS is a high performance water-based polymeric additive. This product can be added to organic-based systems, including renders, coatings and adhesives commonly used in the construction industry to accelerate drying and increase early rain resistance. Thanks to its compatibilit, PROX®LTQS can be post-added to an existing formulation.
