IRASORB CTO20

Irasorb CTO grades are available as powders and dispersions. In order to benefit from the superior IR absorption properties of this material, it is necessary to ensure the highest possible degree of dispersion. The CTOM10 grade offers the great advantage that it can be used directly in the extrusion or injection molding process without further pre-treatment. Formulation of Masterbatches for solar protection products is simplified.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Tungsten oxides exist in many forms, which offer great opportunities for chemical modifications to adapt the products properties. Keeling & Walkers extensive knowledge in solid state chemistries provided the background for developing a range of oxides with novel properties.
  • The stoichiometric WO3 has a yellow color. With increasing oxygen deficiency, the colors change from yellow to blue to purple to brown. Reduced Tungsten oxides are sub stoichiometric compounds, which absorb infrared light – albeit at a low rate.
  • Manipulation of the crystal structure and doping with other metals increases the IR absorption efficiency significantly. The doped tungsten oxides are the most effective materials of their class. Absorption of NIR Light starts already at around 900 nm, an area where the highest solar intensity of the near Infrared range is recorded. The transparency in the visible range can be adjusted by varying the concentration of the doped Tungsten Oxides, which can improve the solar shading effect even further.
