Termirepel®™ is compatible with all kinds of thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers such as PE, XLPE, PP, PVC, polyesters, epoxies and paints: both water and oil based. Termirepel®™ is available in the form of a masterbatch based on LDPE as well as EVA polymeric granules. It is also available as:

  • 20% solution in ethanol
  • 2.5% solution in water
  • Solution in kerosene or any paint miscible solvent (4000 ppm)
  • 50% concentrated Nano granular form in wax
  • It can also be incorporated as a gel or aerosol spray.

Moreover a solution of Termirepel®™ can be used as a wood preservative in a similar fashion to conventional wood preservatives that are used elsewhere. The absorbance capacity of the wood with respect to this solution being high, it is incorporated with the same right from the core to its outer periphery thus rendering the latter termite proof.

As Termirepel®™ is effective at parts per million levels; it does not interfere with the physical or chemical properties of polymers or compounded polymers. It is designed to withstand the extreme heat of polymer processing as also enhanced and uniform dispersion along the length of the polymer matrix. The suggested loading in polymers is 500 parts per million or 0.05%. At such small loadings the physical properties of the polymers or the compounding process are not at all affected.

Termirepel®™ has been incorporated as an aerosol spray, used as gel to protect from woodpeckers & other birds, used on roofs. Termirepel®™ has been very successfully added to Wires & Cables, Plastic screens & sidings, railway doors & windows, seats, wires & cables used in automobiles.
