Omyabond 160 is the ultra-fine functional calcium carbonate to replace fillers for high modulus adhesives and sealants. It is now possible to achieve the mechanical and rheological performance of Ultrafine Precipitated Calcium Carbonates with the low carbon footprint of Ground Calcium Carbonates.

Improve performance

Omyabond 160 provides excellent anti-slumping behaviour and good yield control.

 

This mitigates the use of other rheological modifiers (like fumed silica) and fillers, as well as in high modulus adhesives and sealants (MS polymer, SMP, STPE, SPUR applications) providing improved reinforcement for demanding applications.

As green as you can get

Omyabond 160 stands out among ultrafine grades due to its low product carbon footprint (PCF). It has been externally assessed to generate just 214 kg CO₂e per dry metric ton to produce.

 

This can be achieved without compromising performance. Omya’s technical support team will help you integrate Omyabond 160 into your production process.

Reduce costs, maximize consistency

The Omyabond 100 family is known for stable moisture content and batch to batch consistency.

 

In addition, Omyabond 160 offers excellent dispersibility, leading to process optimization, and higher consistency which delivers more predictable formulation behavior over time.

Sustainability and reduced carbon footprint

In an increasingly eco-conscious international society, the construction industry needs meaningful solutions which are reliable and sustainable.

 

Efforts aimed at resource preservation, long-term durability and carbon footprint reduction must be balanced with their potential impact on manufacturing, energy costs and storage stability.
