Neocryl® HP-4000: High-performance, moisture-resistant wall paint resins

Around the world, consumers are increasingly searching for more cleanable, stain-resistant wall paints that deliver high levels of functional performance – particularly in moist areas. But, all too often, the solutions available fail to meet these needs. 

Our new NeoCryl® HP-4000 resin is an all-in-one solution for premium wall paints in high-humidity areas. Thanks to its perfect water vapor permeability, NeoCryl® HP-4000 helps meet the need for moisture-resistant solutions in these places. If you are looking for a resin that drives high performance, cleanability, and moisture resistance, look no further. 

An all-in-one solution

Leveraging our considerable expertise, we have developed NeoCryl® HP-4000. A 100% acrylic self-crosslinking emulsion, this innovative resin provides a single solution for high-humidity areas, as well as enabling healthier, longer-lasting living environments. Specifically, its excellent early water resistance and low water uptake provide an innovative moisture-resistant solution for moist rooms. At the same time, its cleanability and resistance properties facilitate beautiful, longer-lasting paint finishes in a wide range of application areas – with less polishing and stain problems.

Enjoy healthier living environments

NeoCryl® HP-4000 is designed for tough applications: it can be easily formulated into hygienic paints for humid spaces. Its outstanding water vapor permeability helps meet the demand for better moisture-resistant performance. In particular, when tested against other benchmark paints for high-humidity areas, our resin demonstrates a low increase in weight after water exposure as well as a low moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR).

Next-level cleanability

NeoCryl® HP-4000 meets consumer demand for better cleanability.  With a scrub class of 1, it produces paint finishes that are easier for end-consumers to clean without wear or damage. It also delivers excellent burnishing resistance across a range of different test conditions. In a range of washability tests using several different markings, NeoCryl® HP-4000 scores very well, especially against highlighter, blue crayon, and orange marker. On average, it performs equally to, or better than, the other benchmark resins tested.

Opening horizons for safe, sustainable wall paint

NeoCryl® HP-4000 enables healthier, more sustainable wall paints for decorative applications. Its low volatile organic compound (VOC) content makes it safer for end-consumers and applicators alike. And, thanks to its outstanding cleanability and resistance properties, it also allows paint systems to last longer, with less frequent recoating – helping mitigate the depletion of natural resources.
