Transforming the Anti-Corrosion Coating Industry

ProxximaTM systems represent a groundbreaking revolution in anti-corrosion coating technology. Our polyolefin thermoset material boasts exceptional attributes: ultra-low viscosity, remarkable durability, and outstanding hydrophobic properties. This innovation opens up new possibilities for coating companies formulating high-performance coatings. ProxximaTM two-component systems form the foundation of solvent-free coatings, allowing a single-pass application with fast and tunable drying times.

Outperforming Epoxy

The hydrophobicity delivered by ProxximaTM systems result in very low water absorption and excellent anti-corrosion performance compared to traditional polar two-part coatings. These polyolefin thermosets form coatings with superior durability compared to standard epoxies, especially at high thickness. Coatings made with ProxximaTM resin systems can be applied in thick films in a single coat with fast return-to-service so applicators can streamline the coating process and save valuable time.

Expanding Coating Capabilities

The Nobel Prize-winning curing chemistry behind ProxximaTM systems is complementary to other chemistries and can be blended with other resins to create coatings previously unimaginable. ProxximaTM systems enhance anti-corrosion, durability, and sag resistance in epoxy coatings. When blended with polyurethanes, ProxximaTM systems elevate anti-corrosion performance.

What industries are using Proxxima™ technology?

    our products

    Proxxima™ polyolefin thermoset resin systems

    Our resin formulations are based on cyclic C5 monomers and other proprietary monomers and additives. Our catalyst formulations have strong foundations in Nobel Prize-winning technology developed by Professor Robert Grubbs and his research team. This powerful combination produces polymers that have the capability to outperform today’s solutions across a broad set of everyday applications such as wind turbine blades, electric vehicle parts, sustainable construction, and anticorrosion coatings.
