BYK-Chemie announces nano products for plastics

July 28, 2004 — BYK-Chemie, a Wesel, Germany-based supplier of additives used in coatings, inks and plastics, announced it will present two products for plastics based on nanotechnology at the K 2004,  plastics industry trade show in October.

The products, NANOBYK-3600 and NANOBYK-3601, were developed to improve scratch and wear resistance of UV-coatings. They can be applied to plastics as, for example, a top coat for vinyl flooring. The products were jointly developed by BYK-Chemie and Nanophase Technology Corp.

It is the first launch of a product resulting from the strategic alliance of the two companies. The partners expect to introduce additional products this year.
