Selected key innovations from Evonik featured at European Coatings Show 2025:

• TEGO® Wet 570 Terra and TEGO® Wet 580 Terra are 100% natural, readily biodegradable biosurfactants offering a high-performance alternative to conventional surfactants, specifically designed for paint and ink formulations.
• TEGO® Wet 270 eCO and TEGO® Foamex 812 eCO are first mass-balanced wetting agents and defoamers produced using ISCC-certified raw materials, enabling a significant reduction in the carbon footprint of end-use applications.
• TEGO® Res 1100 is a a novel co-binder that improves the deinking of flexible packaging printed with solventborne inks formulations, without requiring modifications to existing equipment and established processes.
• Ancamine® 2858 is a curing agent tailored for high-temperature climates, offering extended pot life and strong adhesion to concrete in epoxy flooring applications. 
• Ancamine® 2849 and Ancamine® 2859 exhibit high chemical resistance in epoxy formulations and are made for low temperature cure, meeting stringent regulatory demand in industrial coatings.
• VESTAGON® BF binder series offers low-temperature curing solutions for PU powder coatings, ideal for heat-sensitive substrates, while reducing environmental impact and operational costs.
• Dynasylan® Organofunctional Silanes enhance EV battery applications by serving as adhesion promoters for lightweight materials, dispersing agents for high filler loadings, and special agents to meet challenging OEM specifications.
• Dynasylan® HYDROSIL and SIVO waterborne silanes, provide innovative chromium-free alternatives to traditional conversion systems, enhancing environmental sustainability and offering cost-effective metal treatment and corrosion protection without compromising performance.
• ORTEGOL® AP 100 is an adhesion promoter for two-component polyurethane systems that delivers excellent adhesion to metal surfaces, making it ideal for EV battery potting applications in both foamed and compact PU systems.
• ORTEGOL® DA 801 is a dispersing agent for polyurethane-based thermal interface materials that effectively reduces viscosity in formulations with high thermally conductive fillers, ensuring optimal thermal conductivity in EV batteries while maintaining the reactivity of PU-based adhesives.
• The VERSALINK® Series provides a sustainable solution for polyurethane and polyurea coatings by enabling catalyst-free reactions at room temperature and offering extended pot life for easier application.
• The VISIOMER® Terra and VISIOMER® eCO product families expand the portfolio of sustainable methacrylates from Evonik. The first mass-balanced VISIOMER® eCO methacrylate enables customers to reduce their carbon footprint with drop-in substitutes that do not require reformulation. The product is certified according to ISCC PLUS.
• SITREN® P 750 and P 755 are powder water repellents that offer durable protection against water and moisture in mortar and rendering systems, minimizing liquid water penetration while maintaining water vapor permeability.
• SITREN® Selfheal adds natural microbes to concrete for repeated self-healing of cracks and pores caused by water, improving durability and reducing maintenance costs for more sustainable concrete structures.   
• DEGACRYL® HS 4302 E is a binder for heat sealing lacquers that has been specifically developed to enable pharmaceutical blisters with improved recyclability.
