Advancing Paint Manufacturing Process

Sorbe specializes in manufacturing innovative chemicals for the paint industry, including non-VOC biodegradable solvents, coalescing agents, and pH stabilizing neutralizers. Our solutions enhance paint quality, performance, and sustainability, aligning with industry standards and eco-friendly practices.

Paint Manufacturing Ingredients

Our expertise lies in developing cutting-edge solutions for the paint industry, focusing on environmentally friendly innovations like biodegradable non-VOC solvents, advanced coalescing agents, and neutralisers. We drive sustainability while ensuring superior paint performance and compliance with global standards.

Below are two of our products:

Sorbe 6814: Highly efficient coalescing agent and an eco alternative to aromatic & chlorinated solvents

It is an additive in paint formulations primarily to soften the polymer, allowing a solid and uniform continuous film as the paint dries. It acts as a stabilizer/temporary plasticizer which provides an even dispersion for polymer or resin and enhances the overall paint performance. Importantly, the evaporation rate is high enough to ensure the proper film formation under a wide range of temperature and humidity conditions.

Optilex NZ 100: Neutralizing additive that raises pH and provides buffering effects to waterborne paints and coatings

It is designed as a functional drop-in replacement that is an economic alternative to other common amine-based neutralizers, and also offers a low-odor stabilizing alternative to Ammonia, NaOH, and other common bases. It helps paint manufacturers to formulate high quality paints, having virtually no amine odor. The product has a very low vapor pressure, with virtually no odor. It can be used as a replacement for current paint neutralization systems.
