In coating and paint systems, Tulco applies Advanced Surface Treated Silicas, Tullanox Coating Technologies, and Colloidal Surface Active Agents to deliver controlled rheology, suspension stability, and surface performance. By modifying silica surface chemistry, Tulco products provide balanced viscosity control that improves flow during application while maintaining stability at rest. This balance helps reduce sagging, settling, and separation, supporting uniform film build and consistent appearance on both horizontal and vertical surfaces.

Tulco silica additives play a critical role in maintaining even dispersion of pigments, fillers, and functional additives throughout coating formulations. Improved suspension stability results in enhanced shelf life, reduced settling during storage, and more consistent color, texture, and performance at the point of use.
Tulco treated silicas also contribute to improved cured film properties. Enhanced toughness, adhesion, and abrasion resistance support long term durability in industrial, protective, and architectural coatings, particularly in applications where surface integrity, environmental resistance, and appearance must be maintained over time.

Tulco silica solutions are used across a broad range of coating and paint applications, including industrial and protective coatings, primers, architectural and maintenance paints, corrosion resistant systems, and specialty coatings. Their compatibility with a wide range of resin chemistries and formulation approaches allows for flexible integration into both standard products and highly application specific designs.
