Troymax™ Anti-SkinB is a water-white to pale straw colored mobile liquid. Troymax™ Anti-SkinB prevents skin formation on storage of paints, inks, varnishes, and pigment dispersions based on vehicles which dry by air-initiated oxidation.
TROYMAXTM ANTISKIN OL
Troymax™ Anti-SkinOL is pale yellow liquid, phenolic type of low volatility anti-oxidant. It prevents skin formation on storage of paints, inks, varnishes, and pigment dispersions. It is particularly indicated in applications where its low odor and low volatility are advantageous and where oxime-type anti-oxidants are not sufficiently potent

Naphthenate

TROYCHEMTM CALCIUM 4
Calcium carboxylates are very useful when used in combination with active driers such as Cobalt and Manganese. Calcium driers help to improve hardness and gloss as well as to reduce skin-formation, silking, and blooming. They are also useful as pigment wetting/dispersing agents and loss-of-dry inhibitors.
TROYCHEMTM COBALT 6
Cobalt carboxylates are the most effective oxidative catalysts at ambient temperatures. Cobalt driers produce fast surface dry to the film. They also are effective as accelerators for peroxide-initiated polyesters and epoxies.
TROYCHEMTM COPPER 8
Copper carboxylates possess some catalytic activity in polyesters and epoxy systems, but the principal use of copper ­metal-soaps is for fungicidal control.
TROYCHEMTM IRON 6
Iron carboxylates are primarily used in dark baking enamels where maximum hardness is required. Normally, it only becomes catalytically active at temperatures over 130°C.
TROYCHEMTM LANTHANUM 4
Lanthanum carboxylates promote the polymerization and through-drying processes. These types of driers are particularly recommended for baking enamels and white and clear overprint varnishes, as they produce the least discoloration of all active metals. They are especially useful for alkyd and epoxy resins or combinations of both with amine resins.
TROYCHEMTM MANGANESE 6
Manganese carboxylates improve the surface drying of a paint film and also possess some through-drying properties. They are frequently used as polymerization accelerators in baking finishes and low-temperature drying systems.
TROYCHEMTM ZINC 10LV
Zinc carboxylates demonstrate anti-oxidant properties. They are used as additives to retard the thermal breakdown of lubricating oils and greases. Zinc carboxylates keep auto-oxidative films open, thus permitting hardening throughout. Zinc carboxylates are very effective wetting/pigment-dispersing agents and have the added property of inhibiting
TROYCHEMTM ZINC 8


Loss of Dry Inhibitor

TROYMAXTM PERMA DRY
Troymax™ PermaDry is a lead-free loss-of-dry and gel-time drift inhibitor. It maintains its efficacy in coatings and inks containing high surface-area pigments such as carbon blacks, organic reds and colloidal silicas. Troymax™ Permadry is a cost-effective replacement for Cobalt 21% feeder pastes.


Water Dispersible

TROYCHEMTM CALCIUM 6WD
Calcium carboxylates are very useful when used in combination with active driers such as Cobalt and Manganese. Calcium driers help to improve hardness and gloss as well as to reduce skin-formation, silking, and blooming. They are also useful as pigment wetting/dispersing agents and loss-of-dry inhibitors.
TROYCHEMTM COBALT 6WD
Cobalt carboxylates are the most effective oxidative catalysts at ambient temperatures. Cobalt driers produce fast surface dry to the film. They also are effective as accelerators for peroxide-initiated polyesters and epoxies.
TROYCHEMTM MANGANESE 6WD
Manganese carboxylates improve the surface drying of a paint film and also possess some through-drying properties. They are frequently used as polymerization accelerators in baking finishes and low-temperature drying systems.
TROYCHEMTM ZIRCONIUM 12WD
Zirconium carboxylates improve the through-dry of auto-oxidative drying systems. They are used in combination with Cobalt and Calcium carboxylates. They are preferentially used as replacements for Lead. Zirconium carboxylates are also utilized as polymerization catalysts.
TROYMAXTM LITHIUM 2
Lithium carboxylates promote through-drying. They are often used in High Solids coatings and water-dispersible alkyds. They do not lose their effectiveness even in cool environments.


Non-Metallic Driers

TROYMAXTM 250
Troymax™ 250 is an effective non-metallic drier accelerator. It is often used in conjunction with primary driers such as cobalt and manganese.


Drier Blends

TROYMAXTM 123
Troymax™ 123 is a ready-for-use pre-complexed mix of different metals. It is used as a drier for air initiated auto oxidative drying coatings.
TROYMAXTM 2002
Troymax™ 2002 is a ready-for-use pre-complexed mix of metal carboxylates. Usually, Troymax™ 2002 does not require the addition of anti-skinning agent.
TROYMAXTM BXPB
Troymax™ BXPB is a stabilized, lead-free blend of driers that emulates the drying actions of lead in a broad range of systems that require the hard/durable finish provided by lead.
TROYMAXTM CZ69
Troymax™ CZ69 is a cobalt-zirconium drier complex designed to promote the air-drying properties of coatings and inks based on oxidizing vehicles. This combination of metals insures good surface and through-drying properties with the addition of a single drier. Compatibility and stability are excellent with a wide range of vehicle types


Polyester Accelerators

TROYMAXTM 559
Troymax™ 559 is a lead-free loss-of-dry and gel-time-drift inhibitor. It maintains drying efficiency in oxidizing paints and printing inks containing high surface area pigments, such as carbon blacks, organic reds and colloidal silicas.
TROYMAXTM PERMADRY
Troymax™ PermaDry is a lead-free loss-of-dry and gel-time drift inhibitor. It maintains its efficacy in coatings and inks containing high surface-area pigments such as carbon blacks, organic reds and colloidal silicas. Troymax™ Permadry is a cost-effective replacement for Cobalt 21% feeder pastes.
