Modifiers

Non-reactive modifiers are used in formulations such as coatings, industrial floors, waterproofing, cable connections, pigment pastes, reactive- and water based adhesives. The function for example as solvents for dye stuffs, heat transfer oils - or electrical insulation oils. These modifiers are available from RÜTGERS under the trade names Ruetasolv® and KMC®. They are essential in many industries, two such examples prove this:

RUETASOLV® for every application

RUETASOLV®DI is an extremely weather resistant raw material and retains its physical state even under the worst temperatures, chemical stresses, high levels of dryness or humidity. It allows our customers to create products that resist all adverse conditions.

KMC for carbonless copy paper

Auto copy NCR papers used as formsheet sets or text rolls always consist of several chemical layers, which are developing their colour formers only after the contact with acidic materials of the CF/CFB sheets. The dye stuffs are dissolved in a solvent and are enclosed in microcapsules. KMC® is an example of such a solvent, a chemically neutral hydrocarbon, which does not cause any undesirable interactions with the microcapsule materials or dye stuffs even at raised temperatures.

So that we can optimally respond to our customers and the needs of the market, RÜTGERS is subdivided into seven lines of business: Basic Aromatics, BTX/PA, Handy Chemicals, Resins & Modifiers, Aromatic Chemicals, Trading and InfraTec.
