Tolonate™ X FLO 100 :Bio-based & Low viscosity • Partially bio-based, aliphatic isocyanate polymer, • Based on Hexamethylene Diisocyanate (HDI), • Solvent free, extremely low viscosity, • Tolonate™ X FLO 100 is designed to produce solvent-free polyurethane materials and/or to reduce volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions of polyurethane formulations. • Its functionality being 2, Tolonate™ X FLO 100 can be used as a building blocks to produce UV-curing resins, TPU’s, PUD’s….. or any other urethane chemistry Putting the care into chemicals
Tolonate™ X FLO 100 :a bio-based product • Partially bio-based. it contains: • 32% of “green carbon” : measured according to ASTM-D6866 standard (14C measurement). This is the weight % of carbon of the renewable part vs total amount of carbon of the molecule. • 25% of renewable material according to the evaluation done by ACDV (Association Chimie Du Végétal). Weight of all atoms (not only C) of the renewable part vs total weight of molecule • This can be advertised using the specific logo of the ACDV: Much more than innovative chemical solutions Putting the care into chemicals
Tolonate™ X FLO 100 : a new low viscosity grade Miscible in all proportions with hydrophobic and hydrophilic polyisocyanates.

Where we can use it ? What will be the effect ? • Tolonate™ X FLO 100 can be used as a crosslinker or co/crosslinker(reactive diluent). It is recommended to mix it with other polyisocyanates to increase the functionality and reach efficient crosslinking. • Tolonate™ X FLO 100 is also suitable as building block thanks to its NCO functionality around 2. Moisture cure systems Polyurethanes, polyureaselastomers Solventborne, waterborne coatings Solvent free coatings Polyurea coatings Building block • Polyurethane acrylates (PUA). • Polyurethane dispersions (PUD) • Thermoplastic urethanes (TPU) . ... summary
Tolonate™ X FLO 100 as building block for resins and materials • Functionality around 2 makes Tolonate™ X FLO 100 suitable as a reactant in the synthesis of coatings resins: • Polyurethane acrylates (PUA). • Polyurethane dispersions (PUD) • Thermoplastic urethanes (TPU) . ... • Main benefits will be : • Better toxicity profile compared to monomers, • Polymer status (in Europe), • “high” reactivity (same as HDI) vs IPDI or H12MDI, • Positive impact of the flexibility(PUD for leather) and viscosityof the end resin.
Building block for PUA Reaction of HDI or Tolonate™ X FLO 100 with acrylated pentaerytrytol The influence of Tolonate™ X FLO 100 is clearly seen on the final viscosity of the PUA (30% of reduction !)
Crosslinker for cast elastomers • Ideal for polyurethane cast elastomers application where light stability and optical clarity are needed. • Will help reaching low viscosity, ideal for potting applications • Improves the compatibilitywith hydrophobic resin like Hydroxy Terminated Poly Butadiene (HTPB). • Main usage: soft to semi hard materials (shore A = 25-80).
Crosslinker for cast elastomers Soft formulation based on HTPB • Main benefit of Tolonate™ X FLO 100 : • “cutting power” (viscosity), • improvement of elongation performances (however unlikely to be used a single hardener).
Xlinker in solvent free systems: Moisture cure 1K coatings • Moisture cure coatings (MC) are 1 K systems where the polyisocyanate which will react with water –moisture (no resin). • A ~80/20 combination with Tolonate™ HDT-LV2 can provide low viscosityand right functionality to match the desired level of hardness.
Xlinker in solvent free systems: 100 % 2K Polyurethanes • Systems do not contain solvent. Viscosity and compatibility are key for good end properties. • Benefit of Tolonate™ X FLO 100: • Viscosity, • Flexibility (performances at break). • Recommendation is to use Tolonate™ X FLO 100 in combination with standard HDI-trimers or biuret to maintain good chemical resistance.
Xlinker in solvent free systems: 100 % 2K Polyurethanes Tolonate™ X FLO 100 will improve the elongation while keeping good mechanical resistance.
Xlinker in solvent free systems: 100 % 2K Polyureas • Polyureas are being used to a growing extent in coatings and materials, as an alternative to PU. Main benefit is fast reactivity & hardness. • Typical application : coatings for flooring, protective (windmills, tanks, containers, pipe coatings, ...) but car refinish applications are also raising. • To be recommended in combination with others polyisocyanatesto avoid damaging hardness and chemical resistance.
Xlinker in solvent free coatings: 100 % 2K Polyureas Tolonate™ X FLO 100 will globally improve the formulation. Polyaspartic system crosslinked with blend Tolonate™ HDT LV2 and Tolonate™ X FLO 100.
Crosslinker in 2K WB PU coatings Tolonate™ X FLO 100 can be used to optimize 2 K PU WB formulations. White topcoat based on acrylic polyol Crosshatch adhesion test after 3 days in hot water (40°C) 5 = good 0 = fail • Benefits of Tolonate™ X FLO 100: • Viscosity /VOC, • Film appearance (gloss), • Wetting and adhesion on apolar substrates (plastics).
Crosslinker in 2K SB PU coatings Benefit in high solids formulations. Formulation based on acrylic polyol Optimum for VOC saving lies around 30 %.
Crosslinker in 2K SB PU coatings Weathering data : QUV B White topcoat based on Uracron CY 474 E-70 from DSM 1.5 % Tinuvin 1130 0.5 % Tinuvin 292 Tolonate™ X FLO 100 shows similar durability vs other low viscosity polyisocyanatesafter QUV B exposure.
Tolonate™ X FLO : what should be remembered • Very low viscosity polyisocyanate • Contains 25 % renewable material • As a crosslinker, recommendation is to use it combination with other polyisocyanates(20-30 %) • Suitable for a large variety of application where main benefits will be : • Low viscosity • Hydrophobicity • Safe toxicological profile • Flexibility/control of mechanical properties
