Our range of polymer dispersions and auxiliaries for the construction industry is extensive and innovative. As far as these products are concerned, excellent working properties, a high level of economic efficiency and environmentally compatible use have always been at the forefront of our developments. We live up to this claim in full with the product categories listed below, as leader in respect of acrylate sealing compounds, flooring adhesives, interior paints and plasters. The main applications are:
Acrylic dispersions and redispersible acrylic powders for the formulation of ceramic tile adhesives. More specific information on ceramic tile adhesives are available on the BASF website.
One-component cement-based Redispersible acrylic powders for cementitious dry mortars. They are used in one-component systems for the formulation of ceramic tile adhesives.
Two-component cement-based Acrylic dispersions used in cementitious systems for the formulation of adhesives for ceramic tile coverings.
Naphthalene-formaldehyde condensate and polycarboxylate-ether for the formulation of superplasticizers. More specific information on concrete plasticizers are available on the BASF website.
Superplasticizer Superplasticizers on basis of naphthalene-formaldehyde condensate.
Acrylic powder, acrylic dispersions and styrene/butadiene dispersions for the modification of hydrolic-binding systems. More specific information on mortar modification are available on the BASF website.
Repair mortar Cementitious mortars, which obtain the necessary properties either by the addition of acrylic and styrene/butadiene powders or dispersions.
Screed Acrylic powder, acrylic dispersions and styrene/butadiene dispersions with a high plasticizing effect.
Concrete repair Polymers which give an excellent adhesion and strength in certified repair systems.
Construction emulsions Styrene/butadiene dispersion used to improve the workability of mortars.
Self-levelling compounds Acrylic powders, acrylic dispersions and styrene/butadiene dispersions with a high plasticizing effect for the formulation of self-levelling compounds.
Flexible mortars Acrylic powders and -dispersions for flexible mortar used on critical substrates.
Bonding aid Acrylic and styrene/butadiene dispersions for bonding finishes, bonding aids as well as for dust binding.
Acrylic dispersions, acrylic powder and styrene/acrylic dispersions for the formulation of special coatings. More specific information on special coatings is available on the BASF website.
Acrylic- and styrene/butadiene dispersions for the formulation of new building materials.
Phase Changing Materials Microencapsulated paraffin's as emulsion or powder grade for modification of building materials of all kind. By increasing thermal capacity a positive effect to internal room climate can be achieved. Temperature peaks level out; cooling and heating expenses will be reduced.
Light-weight concrete Styrene/acrylic dispersion for increased strength in light-weight concrete.
Additives
Additives for the formulation of dispersion based paints, finishes and protective coatings improve pigment dispersion, filmformation, viscosity or water repellence. In addition our additives are used to modify, e.g. defoam or thicken products from the construction chemical range. More specific information on additives are available on the BASF website.
Defoamer Additives to avoid foam formation when producing dispersion-based products.
Thickeners Additives to control viscosity and flow of emulsion paints, as well as construction chemicals.
Tensides Additives to improve salt-stability of paint formulations.
Waterproofer Additives to improve water reppellency and resistance against driving rain.
Dispersers Additives to improve pigment wetting and enhance gloss in case of latex paints. Dispersing agents can be used for construction chemicals as well.
Coalescents / Plasticisers Additives to reduce filmformation temperature of polymer dispersions temporarily.
