These particles provide higher opacity than glass microspheres and are often used as contrast particles. Aqueous suspensions of silica microspheres rarely require the use of surfactants or stabilizers. Silane coatings enable silica microspheres to be modified to generate functional groups or alter surface properties. Additional advantage of silica microspheres is glass transition temperature of over 1000 degrees Celsius, which makes them suitable for high temperature applications. Silica microspheres and nanospheres are composed of synthetic amorphous silica made in a laboratory batch environment. voir moins | |

Barium titanate glass offers a much higher refractive index compared to other glass formulations. Refractive Index is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the specified material - a description of how light slows down as it passes through an optical material. High refractive index microspheres are critical when used for optical systems where high refractive power is required such as endoscopy, micro-optics, defense and microscopy. Barium titanate glass microspheres will reflect back more light directly to the viewer. High index of refraction enables retroreflectivity which is often desired in guard rails, traffic signs, reflective paint, tape or clothing. Barium titanate glass hemispherically coated with aluminum ensures that the light bounces off the aluminum- coated half of the sphere and produces the retroreflective effect for high visibility in dark conditions. voir moins | |

Density gradients are often used for separations and purification of cells, viruses and sub-cellular particles. Generally a set of several density marker beads covering a range of densities is used. The gradient is calibrated with beads that float at different heights within the column. When a test sample is added to the column, it drops until the point of neutral buoyancy, and the density is determined from the calibration chart. Density gradient columns can be used to measure the density of any sample. voir moins | |

These can be lacquers based on acrylic dispersion, wood glazing, wood and furniture lacquers, printing inks, and industrial finishes (air-drying and stove cured enamels). In comparison with powdery matting agents, Deuteron MM 677 offers the advantage of dust-free handling. The product can be easily incorporated by all common dispersing processes. When producing clear varnish, only a small rate of shear is required to incorporate Deuteron MM 677. This prevents forming of micro foam in the production batch. Even when Deuteron MM 677 is added to the mill base or the dispersion-medium, overmilling is practically impossible due to its excellent shear stability. The matting liquid is kept free of wetting agent and binder. Their presence usually limits the compatibility. Waxes or similar products are not included either. This allows for the use of Deuteron MM 677 in a wide field of applications. Deuteron MM 677 causes little cloudiness and is therefore also suitable for the use in clear varnishes. voir moins | Request Sample |

Due to its excellent fineness the product can be used as a matting additive in many applications. Even in higher dosages, the products specific oil absorption value does not lead to a considerable increase in viscosity. Flexibility of the coating will be insignificantly effected by the use of Deuteron PMH C as matting agent. Being a thermoset, Deuteron PMH C increases the blocking stability of coatings in which the employed binder shows a tendency towards thermoplasticity. Deuteron PMH C is resistant to temperatures above 200 °C. Color fastness and weather resistance are excellent. The use in exterior applications is possible without limitations. The coatings are recoatable. Deuteron PMH C is wax-free. Deuteron PMH C can be used as a matting agent in aqueous and solvent based coating systems. A suitable matting agent combination can be created for solvent free, UV curing varnishes with the additional use of SiO2. With its favorable oil absorption value Deuteron PMH C is ideal for coatings with high flexibility like coil coatings and leather finishes. In powder coatings the presence of Deuteron PMH C can improve fluidity and spraying property of the powder coating. voir moins | Request Sample |

It imparts coatings with a “soft touch” surface, even if the binder is not an especially soft or elastic type. At the same time it acts as a matting agent. The effect depends on the dosage and the system’s other components, particularly the binder. Deuteron SO 100 is resistant against solvents which are customary in the paint industry. It is temperature resistant up to 160 °C. The small particle size makes the product suitable for thin-film applications. Deuteron SO 100 contains no waxes and thus does not negatively affect the re-coatability. In conjunction with isocyanates, the inherent OH-functionality allows the product to be crosslinked in the coating matrix. This can lead to higher mechanical and chemical resistances, which are not attainable by conventional means of adjusting “soft touch” and matting. This product is suitable for all radically curing coatings, especially 100% UV-systems. Deuteron SO 100 is intended for coatings which have to offer a special feel and matting up to a “soft touch”.

In bulk, these metallized glass spheres appear as a grey powder. Under an optical microscope, each individual microsphere displays a partial aluminum coating. Aluminum (Al) coatings on microspheres offer advantages in developing retroreflective surfaces for high visibility materials and applications. The hemispherical (half-shell) aluminum coating creates the mechanism for retroreflectivity as the light passes through the clear half of the glass bead and “bounces” off the reflective aluminum-coated back surface, directing the light back to the source or the viewer. Additional surface coatings (silane or fluorochemical) ensure that the spheres remain on the surface of the formulation, thereby enhancing the effect of retroreflectivity. voir moins | |
