Tyzor® BTM is an extremely moisture sensitive alkoxy titanate. It is commonly used to cross-link polymers in paints and coatings that contain hydroxyl or carboxyl functionality. When added to solventborne paints and coatings, Tyzor® BTM improves surface hardness, drying time, adhesion to metal and glass surfaces. In addition to cross-linking Tyzor® BTM can be used as a Lewis acid in esterification, condensation, and addition reactions. It is also used as a Ziegler-Natta catalyst in the manufacture of polyolefins like polyethylene and polypropylene. Tyzor® BTM can be used to form titanium dioxide pigments and films by sol-gel processes. This is especially useful in the manufacture of glass and ceramic coatings.
