WACKER Sells ADDID® Silicone Additive Brand to Degussa
ADDID® additives are silicone-based coating and printing ink additives. They control surface properties and produce hammer tone effects in coating systems, improve adhesion for a variety of coatings and prevent unwanted foaming during production and application of coatings and printing inks. ADDID® silicone additives are compatible with numerous paint and printing ink systems, and are economical to use thanks to their high efficiency. The main application areas are automotive and general industrial coatings, printing inks, protective wood coatings, packaging and aluminum can coatings.
The agreement will extend market opportunities for the successful ADDID® silicone additive range. WACKER SILICONES President Dr. Klaus Höfelmann said: "We are pleased to have found a competent partner for our customers in Degussa's Tego Coating & Ink Additives business line. Tego's global market presence will further enhance customer proximity."
