At BASF, we nurture the seeds of
ingenuity. You’ll find it in how we apply
our expertise in surface and materials
science to an exhaust stream to
deliver cleaner air, or to crude oil to
transform it into gasoline. And our
ingenuity in performance minerals gives manufacturers the
edge they need in today’s competitive markets.
BASF is a recognized leader in the development and
manufacture of high quality mineral products for the paint
and coatings industry. Our surface and materials science
expertise has led to the development of a family of products
that improve performance and lower cost. These products
include Mattex® and Mattex® MX extenders, Ultrex® 98
kaolin, Satintone® kaolins and ASP® grades, as well as
Attagel® thickeners and Alsibronz® micas. Now, ASP® G90
and ASP® G92 high gloss kaolins join this list as two more
examples of how BASF products can cost-effectively
improve the performance and appearance of paints
and coatings.
ASP® G90 & ASP® G92high gloss kaolins feature:■ Up to 10% TiO2 reduction at equal opacity for
reduced total formula cost
■ Superior gloss and less haze compared with
competitive kaolin products
■ Lower cost and reduced VOC through resin reduction
■ Improved optical properties versus other competitive
kaolin products
■ Ease of dispersion
■ Better dry handling and less dusting
■ Improved mar and scuff resistance with excellent
clarity in clear varnish systems
ASP® G90 and ASP® G92High gloss kaolins
Product descriptionASP® G90 and ASP® G92 are
microfine particle size hydrous kaolins
produced by an innovative technology
developed by BASF and covered by
BASF US Patent Application
Publication 2006/0047047. This new technology produces
a very fine particle size product with a narrow particle size
distribution that provides high gloss and optical properties
that are superior to competitive kaolin products. ASP G90
high gloss kaolin is pulverized to provide ease of dispersion,
high Hegman grind and TiO2 extension in architectural and
industrial coatings. ASP G92 provides the same performance
in water-borne systems only and is available in spray-dried
bead form for easier handling and less dusting.
Application informationASP G90 high gloss kaolin is designed for use in architectural
and industrial, water-borne and solvent-borne gloss and
semigloss coatings. ASP G90 can also be used to provide
mar and scuff resistance in clear coat
varnishes without affecting clarity. ASP
G92 is specially designed for a broad
range of water-borne paints and
coatings.

Solvent-borne clear varnish with ASP® G90exhibits:■ Improved mar and scuff resistance
■ Improved chemical resistance
■ Excellent clarity
■ Better gloss than the competitive gloss kaolin
Historically, kaolins have not typically
been used in clear varnish coats due
to their adverse effect on clarity.
However, because of its microfine
particle size and very narrow particle
size distribution, ASP G90 high gloss
kaolin is recommended for use in clear varnish industrial
applications for improved abrasion, mar and scuff resistance
while maintaining excellent clarity. ASP G90 provides higher
gloss (see Charts 13 and 14) compared with the competitive
kaolin in this solvent-borne clear varnish formula.
