For applications outside the leather industry, ICAP Leather Chem offers a wide range of water-based acrylic and polyurethane resins with a variety of chemical nature of the polymer chain:
Acrylic resins
Acrylic dispersions are at the heart of the formulations and allow us to achieve high performance with excellent value for money. The ability to carry out targeted research studies enables us to select the best raw materials to obtain resins with the desired characteristics, both in terms of adhesion and mechanical properties, allowing for high chemical resistance, both to hydrolysis and weathering.
Polyurethane resins
PUD polyurethane dispersions are the key components, for example, of coatings of the highest quality. Due to their composition they provide excellent mechanical properties from soft film and tack-free to hard surfaces. PUDs are used for many different applications that demand resistance to abrasion, UV, blocking, and hydrolysis.
We offer a variety of chemical natures:
- Polyurethane – acrylic
- Polyester-based aliphatic polyurethane
- Polyether-based aliphatic polyurethane
- Polycarbonate-based aliphatic polyurethane
- Polyether-based aromatic polyurethane
Tailormade formulations
To meet specific requirements and specifications in different application fields, we offer customized development in close cooperation with our customers. Please contact us to choose suitable range products or open a development project.
