BASF Translink 445 Calcined Kaolin

BASF Translink 445 Calcined Kaolin is a high-purity, surface-modified calcined kaolin clay engineered for enhanced dispersion and compatibility in high-performance coatings, inks, and plastics. Its optimized particle morphology improves gloss, opacity, and rheology control while reducing formulation viscosity versus standard kaolins.

Features Of BASF Translink 445 Calcined Kaolin

  1. Highly calcined, fully dehydroxylated kaolin with optimized particle morphology for enhanced reinforcement.

  2. Consistent brightness (>92.0% ISO) and low iron content for superior whiteness in demanding color systems.

  3. Controlled particle size distribution ensuring excellent dispersion and rheology in liquid formulations.

  4. Low oil absorption (~65 g/100 g) enabling high filler loading without compromising viscosity or application performance.

  5. Chemically inert and pH-stable, compatible with acrylics, polyurethanes, and epoxy resins.

Typical Applications Of BASF Translink 445 Calcined Kaolin

  1. High-performance architectural and industrial coatings requiring opacity, gloss control, and scrub resistance.

  2. Automotive basecoats and clearcoats where consistent optical properties and suspension stability are critical.

  3. Plastic compounds for thermoplastics (e.g., PP, ABS) seeking dimensional stability and surface finish enhancement.

  4. Adhesives and sealants requiring controlled rheology, improved bond strength, and reduced shrinkage.

  5. Specialty inks—including UV-curable and water-based flexo inks—for improved print definition and pigment anchoring.
