Heubach to present new pigments and pigment preparations at the European Coatings Show 2017

Langelsheim, March 1st, 2017. Heubach will be presenting a number of extensions to its product portfolio in Hall 7A, stand 324 at the European Coatings Show (ECS), which is set to be held from April 4–6, 2017, in Nuremberg, Germany.

HEUCOTINT™ UN 41, 42, 43, 44 – New universal high performance tinting systems

Heubach has expanded its well-known universal HEUCOTINT™ UN tinting system range of water based, high performance pigment preparations to include four new tinting lines marketed under the trade names HEUCOTINT™ UN 41, HEUCOTINT™ UN 42, HEUCOTINT™ UN 43 and HEUCOTINT™ UN 44 series.

The sophisticated formulation technology has been further improved, resulting in a HEUCOTINT™ UN product family which allows the tinting of solvent-borne alkyd coatings up to silica plasters and is also compliant with the current regulatory requirements and environmental labels.

The Heubach HEUCOTINT™ UN kit system, which comprises Heubach’s broadly varied range of universal tinting system lines combined with cutting-edge, highly flexible production technology to result in the shortest development times for additional or tailor-made colorants, allows for any kind of tinting system configuration. All of these colorant tinting systems are specifically designed for point-of-sale tinting (POS) as well as for in-plant applications (IPT).

HEUCODUR® Yellow 2530 / 2570 / 2590 - Super-strong chrome rutile yellows (P.Br. 24)

HEUCODUR® complex inorganic color pigments offer outstanding performance in terms of chemical, temperature and weathering resistance and are the first choice for formulating durable colors in all kinds of technical applications.

After the successful market introduction of Heucodur® 2550 (medium shade), this is now being joined by family members Heucodur® 2530 (light shade), Heucodur® 2570 (dark shade) and Heucodur 2590 (very dark shade) to combine these well-known properties with an extremely high tinting strength. The products exhibit a significant cost saving potential when combined with TiO2 or organic pigments, while maintaining the typical benefits of standard mixed metal oxide pigments.

The introduction of these new grades coincides with the company's recent significant increase in production capacity to meet the globally rising demand for this pigment class, e.g. as a chrome yellow replacement option.

HEUCOPHOS® - Zinc-free anticorrosive pigment solutions

Looking back into history, one of the driving innovative factors behind ACO Pigments was legislation.

Continually stricter handling of labeling has been observed in the past and can also be anticipated for the future. To this end, Heubach decided to apply the same labeling procedure for all zinc-containing products without considering any currently possible exemptions, which implicate a high risk of being withdrawn in the near future.

As a result, the call for zinc-free anticorrosive pigments without labeling has steadily increased in recent years. As a global market leader, Heubach developed a range of zinc-free anticorrosives which provides environmentally friendly solutions even in demanding primer systems. The product portfolio consists of zinc-free standard phosphate, modified orthophosphates, modified polyphosphates and ion-exchange pigments.

In addition, Dr. Thomas Sowade (Marketing, Business Development and Product Manager) will present in his talk at the European Coatings Show Conference on April 4th, 2017, the results of different paint systems, varying binders, substrates, anti-corrosive pigments etc. and compare salt spray test results with the test results of much faster electrochemical impedance spectroscopy from the standpoint of an anti-corrosive pigment manufacturer.

All guests are warmly invited to visit the company's trade fair stand 324 in Hall 7A for in-depth information on its extensive product range, which specializes in pigments and pigment preparations for paints, coatings and printing inks.

The Heubach Group, with locations in Germany, the USA, India and China, is an owner-operated and internationally acting manufacturer of corrosion protection pigments as well as organic and inorganic color pigments, hybrid pigments and pigment preparations for use in the paint, plastics, ink and building industries, as well as for other high-quality special applications.
