SENKA Co.,Ltd. List of Products and Services

The "Shine Guard Series" is a water-based emulsion type UV absorber developed for water-based coatings. It demonstrates high light resistance, effectively preventing the deterioration of coatings and improving the lightfastness of dyed fabrics. It easily disperses in water and can be added to various water-based products. The series includes a rich lineup of products such as "BZ-29," which shows good performance in improving the light resistance of pigment components, as well as "TA-04" and "HL-06," which excel in heat resistance and durability against UV stability. 【Features】 ■ Effectively prevents the deterioration of coatings and improves the lightfastness of dyed fabrics ■ Easily disperses in water and can be added to various water-based products ■ When added to paints, it disperses stably without separation or sedimentation ■ Further improvement in light resistance can be observed by using UVA and HALS in combination *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

This is an introduction to our "Paint and Ink Division." We offer the "Shine Guard Series," which demonstrates high light resistance and effectively prevents the degradation of coatings, as well as the emulsion-type thickener "Senka Act Gel Series." We provide agents that enhance the properties of paints, inks, and coatings, including wettability, dispersibility, viscosity, weather resistance, and adhesion. 【Product Lineup】 ■ Water-based UV absorbers, light stabilizers, and antioxidants "Shine Guard Series" ■ Drying control agents ■ Various dispersants ■ Thickening agents (inverse emulsion type) ■ Emulsion-type thickener "Senka Act Gel Series" *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"AFP-25" is a pre-treatment agent for pigment inkjet printing that can be used on both cotton and polyester. It can be applied using roller or spray methods, and it is suitable for high-density dyed polyester fabrics, which have traditionally been difficult to achieve high color vibrancy. By treating with this product, it prevents ink sinking and bleeding, resulting in clear and vivid complex patterns. 【Features】 - Usable on both cotton and polyester - Prevents ink sinking and bleeding, ensuring clear and vivid complex patterns - Compatible with high-density dyed polyester fabrics - Can be applied using roller or spray methods - Achieves vibrant color reproduction *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"Senka Act Gel CM100" is a cationic thickening agent in emulsion form based on methacrylic acid esters. It is effective for thickening cationic water-based products where conventional anionic thickeners cannot be used. Additionally, because it is a liquid type that is easy to handle, it can be widely used for thickening various water-based products. 【Features】 ■ Enables thickening of cationic water-based products where conventional anionic thickeners cannot be used ■ Fast dissolution rate due to its liquid form ■ Can be directly added to the water-based products that need thickening ■ No need to add alkaline agents such as ammonia water *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Senka Act Gel Series" is a W/O emulsion-type thickener that provides thickening effects with short stirring times. It does not require the addition of alkali (pH adjustment) like alkali-thickening types. As it is an easy-to-handle liquid product, it can be widely used for thickening various water-based products. There are various grades available depending on the ionic nature and pH of the target solution. 【Features】 ■ Thickening effects can be achieved with short stirring times ■ Does not clump like starch or gum when added to water ■ Lower stringiness (viscosity that pulls like a thread) compared to starch-based thickeners, showing high thixotropy ■ Capable of thickening water-based emulsions such as acrylic and vinyl acetate (e.g., paints, adhesives) ■ Senka Act Gel AP200 is suitable for neutral to strongly alkaline regions Senka Act Gel AS100 is suitable for weakly acidic to alkaline regions Senka Act Gel NS100 is suitable for weakly acidic to alkaline regions Senka Act Gel CM100 is suitable for acidic regions Senka Act Gel CD100 is suitable for strongly acidic to alkaline regions Shows high thickening effects in the above pH ranges (e.g., cleaning agents) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

"Senka Act Gel CD 100" is an emulsion-type cationic thickener made from a fourth-grade ammonium salt-based polymer. It is an easy-to-handle liquid type that can thicken strongly acidic and strongly alkaline aqueous solutions, making it widely used for thickening various water-based products. 【Features】 - Being a liquid type, it dissolves quickly and can be directly added to the water-based products that need thickening. - By increasing the amount added, it can thicken strong acidic solutions. - It can thicken regardless of the order of addition, making it easy to handle. - It can thicken regardless of the type of acid. - The thickening liquid does not experience a decrease in viscosity over time and is relatively stable.
