Borchers offers a range of additives with specific benefits for wide variety of adhesive and sealant applications in a multitude of industries. Our dispersant technology allows for higher solids content with lower viscosity which leads to easier application.

We offer dispersant technology and rheology modifiers that give adhesives superior hold, while you need lower force of application. Our products enable shear thinning with quick recovery, so adhesives won’t slump when applying them. Our rheology modifiers provide creep resistance without moisture sensitivity in both adhesives and sealants.

Our additives for adhesives and sealants:

• Minimize sagging and settling
• Improve storage stability
• Allow higher inorganic filler loading
• Reduce costs

Borchers offers a range of additives with specific benefits for anticorrosive primers. Our products allow for a higher solids content with lower viscosity, which increases the ease of application and decreases permeation. Our high-performance catalysts improve through cure at the substrate compared to standard cobalt products. This improves wet adhesion and provides outstanding barrier properties, which result in excellent corrosion resistance.

Because of this, our additives for anticorrosive primers enable a wider window of application with changing ambient conditions.
