Specialty ingredients
Altor® Polyaspartic Esters
Our Polyaspartic ester resin products are amine-functional reactive materials for polyisocyanates, delivering outstanding abrasion resistance, UV stability and fast return to service.
Agri-Pure™ Biosolvent
Our vegetable oil-derived biosolvent offers excellent cleaning, thinning and solvent properties with fewer health risks than traditional solvents. Availability: Europe
Oxi-Cure® Low VOC Oils & Coalescing Agents
The Oxi-Cure® product line of esters is specially designed to help our paint and coatings customers achieve low VOC levels in their coating formulations. Products include coalescents and crosslinkers to provide superior film forming and reduced VOC.
ChemRes™ Epoxy Resins
Focus on modifications of various types of resins to improve handling and performance, delivering custom-made solutions.
ChemMod® Reactive Diluents
We are one of the leading domestic producers of reactive diluents. All materials produced utilize our state of the art facilities.
ChemCure® Amidoamines
Amidoamines are less volatile and have less irritation potential than polyamines. They also offer lower viscosities, allowing for higher pigment loading and low VOC formulas. Additional features include good adhesion to concrete and adaptability to a wide range of working times.
ChemCure® Cycloaliphatic Amines
Modified cycloaliphatic amines from IPDA are one of the most commonly used curing agents and can be used for low VOC coatings with a fast cure rate, short pot life, and low temperature curing suitability.
ChemCure® Mannich Bases
Mannich bases are highly reactive curing agents because the accelerator is built in. They are good for low temperature cure and other challenging applications, such as damp, cold and even under water applications.
ChemCure® Modified Aliphatic Amines
Modified aliphatic amines produce coatings with low vapor pressure and more practical mixing ratios. They are engineered for targeted applications, such as chemical resistance, blush resistance, water spot resistance, adhesion, low color or combinations of these properties.
ChemCure® Polyamides
Unmodified polyamides produce coating layers that are much more open in terms of their chemical structure and are thus more flexible. They generally produce coatings with excellent adhesion, water resistance and flexibility.
ChemCure® Tertiary Amines
ChemCure® Tertiary amines can be used to speed cure times in epoxy systems.
Base ingredients
Blended and Packed Vegetable Oil Products
Flexible blending capability to optimize technical performance and reduce costs. Packed vegetable oils, waxes and fats for small quantity use. Availability: Europe
Industrial Base Oils
Canola, soybean and linseed oils provide many advantages over mineral oils, including low volatile organic compound (VOC) content and low toxicity. Availability: North America
Agri-Pure® Lauric Oils
We offer coconut oils and palm kernel oils for industrial applications where excellent thermal and oxidative stability, as well as low volatility, is valued. Availability: Europe
Monounsaturated Oils
We offer rapeseed (canola) oil and hi-oleic sunflower oils for diverse industrial applications where biodegradability is desired. Availability: Europe
Polyunsaturated oils
We offer sunflower, soybean and linseed oils for industrial applications where reactivity with heat and oxygen are desired. Availability: Europe
Starches
Cargill is offering a wide range of native and modified starches. Native starches are used as a carbon source in fermentation processes. In addition starches play a role in stabilizing formulations of fermentation products and they can be used as a carrier for encapsulation or granulation of fermentation products
Carrageenan
Carrageenans are derived from seaweed and are known for their thickening and gelling capabilities. They can also be used for controlling the viscosity of fermentation media and for stabilizing formulations of fermentation products.
Xanthan Gum
Xanthan can be used for controlling the viscosity of fermentation media and for stabilizing formulations of fermentation products.
Industrial Lecithin
Lecithin enhances the manufacture of oil-based emulsions, suspensions and dispersions and stabilizes these systems.
