BYK-1797 is a silicone-containing, highly effective defoamer and air release agent for solvent-borne, high-solid, and solvent-free 100% UV printing inks, overprint varnishes, and PUR-based thermosets. It also serves as a process additive for thermoset resin systems and polishes, including Pickering emulsions.

BYK-347 is a silicone surfactant for aqueous coatings, printing inks, and overprint varnishes. It significantly reduces surface tension, improving substrate wetting without increasing surface slip. It is suitable for systems without co-solvents and offers excellent recoatability in thin layers, particularly in automotive coatings.

BYK-323 is a silicone-containing surface additive for solvent-borne coating systems. It provides a slight reduction in surface tension, a slight increase in surface slip, good leveling, and defoaming properties. It is thermostable up to 250°C.

BYK-302 is a silicone surface additive suitable for solvent-free, solvent-borne, and aqueous coating systems as well as printing inks. It reduces surface tension moderately, enhances slip, and improves substrate wetting. The additive belongs to the silicone chemical family and is effective in solventless, solventborne, and waterborne coatings.

BYK-348 is a silicone surfactant for aqueous coatings, adhesives, printing inks, and overprint varnishes. It reduces surface tension, enhancing substrate wetting without increasing surface slip. Suitable for systems without co-solvents, it functions as a surfactant in waterborne coatings, adhesives, and inks, and belongs to the silicone chemical family.

RHEOBYK-420 is a liquid rheology additive for aqueous and water-reducible coating systems, designed to improve anti-sagging and anti-settling properties. It is especially suited for manufacturing aqueous pigment concentrates and causes thixotropic flow behavior. Post-addition is possible.

BYK-155 50% is designed for use in thrust reversers and heat shielding applications. It is suitable for industrial oils and fluids, including drilling fluids, and is effective in waterborne coatings. Additionally, it serves as an additive for fillers and inorganic pigments.

DISPERBYK® 160 is a high molecular weight block copolymer solution with pigment-affinic groups. It functions as both a dispersant and a wetting agent, providing excellent leveling, reducing viscosity, and enhancing gloss. This product offers high pigment loading and color strength, making it suitable for solventborne coatings and coil coatings. It is compatible with wood substrates and is commonly used in pigment concentrates. Available in pails and drums, DISPERBYK® 160 ensures high transparency and performance in industrial applications.

BYK-381 is a polyacrylate-based surface additive for aqueous coatings and adhesives. It enhances leveling and substrate wetting in waterborne coatings, adhesives, and radiation-curable printing inks and overprint varnishes. The additive offers improved substrate wetting, pinholeing resistance, and anti-cratering properties. It is suitable for waterborne inks, radiation-curable inks, and other aqueous systems, functioning as a surface modifier. It belongs to the polyacrylate chemical family.

DISPERBYK® 2015 is a VOC- and solvent-free wetting and dispersing additive for aqueous coatings, printing inks, adhesives, and care products. It is designed for resin-free pigment concentrates.
