Nano technology, coupling agents.


The company's 82-page technical bulletin is titled, "Nano technology --using titanate ti·tan·ate  
n.
A salt or ester of titanic acid.
 and zirconate coupling agents to couple nano particulates/pigments/fibers; catalyze/regenerate/copolymerize; flame retard/intumesce/phosphatize; functionalize/make UV reactive; provide superior process efficiency." This technical bulletin contains 32 tables, 49 figures and 82 references.

Other literature available from the company describes the use of Ken-React NZ 66A (mercapto zirconate) in sulfur-cured elastomers; injection molding; a new coupling agent for MEKP MEKP Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide  cast polyester; permanent antistats; PVC PVC: see polyvinyl chloride.

; foamed polymers; fiber reinforced thermosets thermosets, materials that can not be softened on heating. In thermosetting polymers, the polymer chains are joined (or cross-linked) by intermolecular bonding. Thermosets are usually supplied as partially polymerized or as monomer-polymer mixtures. ; and a new Kenflex A aromatic plasticizer.

The Kenflex A is 100% aromatic and non-volatile. Kenflex A-dimethylnaphthalene tetramer has an 80[degrees]C melt point, a 150[degrees]C flash point and 700 cps at 150[degrees]C. Advantages are said to include superior processing, nerve reduction, outstanding ozone resistance in butyl butyl /bu·tyl/ (bu´t'l) a hydrocarbon radical, C4H9.
