Tyzor® 9000 is a 100% active, moisture-sensitive alkoxy titanate used across various industries. It is commonly used as a catalyst in esterification and transesterification reactions and to cross-link polymers with hydroxyl or carboxyl functionality.

As a catalyst, Tyzor® 9000 acts as a Lewis acid and is well suited for esterification, condensation, and addition reactions. It eliminates byproducts, increases yield, and has lower toxicity than other metal catalysts. This makes Tyzor® 9000 a good replacement for organostannanes and other hazardous metal catalysts used in industrial phthalic acid and DEG polyol synthesis. Consequently, Tyzor® 9000 stands out as a specialty chemical additive that supports both process efficiency and regulatory compliance, particularly in environments where low toxicity and high yield are critical.

Tyzor® 9000's cross-linking abilities allow formulators to achieve enhanced performance characteristics in applications ranging from adhesives to inks to specialized coatings. In coating applications, this increases the hardness, heat resistance, and chemical resistance of cured films. Tyzor® 9000 is also used as a binder to form polymeric titanium dioxide films on surfaces and can be used to promote adhesion to surfaces that also contain hydroxyl or carboxyl functional groups.
