Huber’s Hydral® Coat 2 Ultrafine Alumina Trihydrate (ATH)A New Super-Functional Extender for Coil Coatings
Coil coatings are highly functional, designed to protect the substrate while providing superior aesthetic properties at very low film thickness.
Hydral® Coat 2 Ultrafine Alumina Trihydrate (ATH) from Huber Engineered Materials is designed to lower the cost of thin film coil coatings without impacting gloss, durability or optical properties. Its unique particle size distribution and extremely high brightness characteristics combine to make it the perfect choice for extending coil coatings.
What property characteristics are important for coil coatings?
• Bright,deep,truecolors• Flexibility• Adhesion• Scratchresistance
What makes it difficult to choose an extender for coil coatings?
• Mostextenderswillreducetheglossatlowfilmthickness,duetotheir coarse particles.• Mostnaturallyoccurringextendersimpartyellowingandlowerbrightness.• Someextendershavehighoilabsorptionthatincreasesviscosityanddetracts from exterior durability.• Bariumsulfateextendershaveaveryhighspecificgravity(4.5). – Leads to settling problems – High cost per gallon
Why is ATH a solid choice to use in coil coatings?
• Chemicallyinert – Exterior durability –Stain,scrubandwaterresistant – UV transparent • Non-abrasive,easyonequipment• Relativelylowoilabsorption• Extremelyhighbrightness,extends without yellowing or discoloring• Refractiveindexof1.57,maintains intensity of color• Aluminasurface,dispersesefficiently• Non-toxic,easytohandleandprocess• Lowspecificgravity(2.4),relatively low cost per gallon
• Glossandglossretention• Humidityresistance• Exteriordurability• Chemicalresistance

Why is Hydral® Coat 2 Ultrafine ATH uniquely suited for coil coatings?
There are two value propositions, depending upon the color:
Physical properties of Hydral Coat 2:
• Extremelysmallandnarrowparticlesizedistribution• Outstandingbrightnessandpurity• GreatTiO2 dispersant interaction• AlltheotherbenefitsofATH – Inert, exterior durability – Low density means no settling in the coating reservoir, low cost per gallon –Lowabrasivity(Mohs2.5) –Samesurfaceasalumina-treatedTiO2 (coatings grades)
Particle Size Distribution Curves ofUltrafine Extenders Used in Coil Coatings
Maintaining high gloss is a function of oil absorption and the amount of coarse particles.NotethatHydralCoat2hasamuchlowercoarsefractionthanthe finest commonly used precipitated and ground barium sulfate products. In addition, the particle size distribution of Hydral Coat 2 is very narrow. This is most important atlowcoatthickness,suchas0.5drymil(13microns).Theresult:HydralCoat2has much less impact on gloss compared with competing products.
In Whites and Pastels:
Hydral® Coat 2 effectively spaces titaniumdioxide(TiO2) and replaces a portion of the resin; thus, lowering cost without adversely impacting optical properties or durability.
In Blacks and Deep-Tones:
Hydral Coat 2 increases solids, lowers cost and reduces volatile organic compounds (VOCs)withoutimpacting jetness or durability.

Opacity at low coat weights
TiO2 is used to impart opacity and whiteness in coil coatings due to its veryhighindexofrefraction(2.61).To impart opacity at the low dry film thickness in coil coatings, high levels ofTiO2 are required. However, the efficiencyofaddingTiO2 is not linear. AsmoreTiO2 is added, the opacity (shown by contrast ratio) improves, but the efficiency deteriorates.
Opacitytakesplacewhen substances of widely different indicesofrefractionareadjacent.WhenTiO2loadinglevelsarehigh,TiO2 particles crowd together. When the particles are not spaced, there is diminishingopacityimprovement.Fortheverylowfilmthicknessofcoilcoatings,highlevelsofTiO2 are needed. This makes the coating expensive.
Fortheoreticallyoptimumopacity,everyTiO2 particle is spaced apart at half the wavelength of light (0.2 micron). Hydral Coat 2 has nearly the same particle size,soitactsasaveryefficientspacerofTiO2. And, since it is less expensive andlowerinspecificgravity,itisalsocost-effective.

Application data for black and deep-tone coil coatings
Blackanddeep-tonecoilcoatingshavehighresintopigmentcontent(lowpigmentvolumecontent[PVC])whichmakesthemexpensive.Thus,theaddition of extenders to lower the cost is desirable, but most extenders will also reduce the gloss and/or adversely impact the jetness or depth of color.
The extremely high brightness and small particle size of Hydral® Coat 2 Ultrafine ATHallowstheformulatortoincreasethePVC,lowertheVOCoftheformulationand reduce the total cost while maintaining gloss, jetness and durability.

In Summary…
Huber’sHydral® Coat 2 Ultrafine ATH is designed to extend high gloss coil coatings like the aluminum siding pictured above. The application data shown throughout this piece shows that formulations extended with Hydral Coat 2 maintain color and gloss in both white and dark colors and do not deteriorate under extended QUV exposure. This result is not surprising, given the fact that Hydral Coat 2 has an ultrafine particle size, a narrow particle size distribution, low oil absorption, is inertanddoesnotdecomposeunderexteriorconditions.Inblackanddeep-toneformulations,HydralCoat2canbealsoincreasethePVC,increasethemileage(spreadingratepergallon),lowercostandreduceVOCs.
