  5. Power and Diversity of ANGUS Nitroalkane and Derivative Chemistry • Nitroalkane chemistry • Complex molecules • Reduces reaction steps • Optimizes synthesis costs • Performs useful transformations • ANGUS can produce literally thousands of nitroalkane derivatives to create potential solutions for customers. • Nitroalkanes and derivatives are used as precursors to the creation of highly-substituted alkanes and alkenes, amines, carboxylic acids, aldehydes, ketones, complex heterocyclic structures and more.

  6. Power and Diversity of ANGUS Nitroalkane and Derivative Chemistry • ANGUS produces four basic nitroalkanes and derivatives • Nitromethane • Nitroethane • 1-nitropropane • 2-nitropropane • Derivatives (nitro alcohols, amino alcohols, oxazolines, oxazolidines and hydroxylamines) • General Benefits Achieved • Neutralization (acidic ingredients, impurities) • Alkaline pH development • pH buffering • Dispersancy • Moisture scavenging • Formaldehyde scavenging • Wetting and moisture displacement • Emulsification (oil/water; water/oil) • Corrosion inhibition

  7. Leather • ZOLDINE™ Synthetic Tanning and Cross-linking Agents improve properties of finished leather • Performance-enhancing • Oxazolidine-based, fast-reacting • Cross-linking agents for collagen and casein • Vegetable tanning materials (condensed tannins)

  8. Leather ZOLDINE™ Synthetic Tanning and Cross-linking Agents • Improve processing and finished products when used in combination with chromium sulfate, aluminum sulfate, vegetable extracts and phenolic syntans • Versatile use in production processes: • Pre-tanning • Tanning • Re-tanning • Excellent for chrome and chrome-free (metal and non-metal) wet white tannages

  9. Life Science Utilities • ANGUS products used in a wide variety of pharmaceutical, ophthalmic and other life science applications • ANGUS helps to reduce raw material and supply chain costs by providing: • Biological buffers • Biochemicals • Diverse sourcing capabilities

  10. Life Science Utilities ANGUS is the inventor and leading manufacturer of TRIS AMINO™ Tromethamine products • Only back-integrated manufacturer compliant with cGMP • Serves as a synthesis or analytical buffer, neutralizer, solubilizer and stabilizer

  11. Metalworking • ANGUS produces unique problem-solving specialty additives that allow for the formulation of superior fluids: • CORRGUARD™ Amino Alcohols • ALKATERGE™ Surface Active Agents (oxazoline-based chemistries work as emulsion stabilizers and corrosion inhibitors) • AEPD™ 85 (low-VOC corrosion inhibitor) • DMAMP-80™ (vapor-phase corrosion inhibitor) • PRIMENE™ amines (control reactivity) • Our portfolio helps achieve desirable properties such as systems in control, longer-life fluids, corrosion resistance and reduced biocide dosing.

  12. Metalworking ANGUS is an innovator for formulated metalworking fluids • CORRGUARD™ portfolio • Increase life of formulated fluids • Work synergistically with biocides • Improve corrosion resistance. • Provide neutralizing and emulsification properties • Patent-pending CORRGUARD EXT • Superior synergy with biocides for longer fluid life; biocide use level reduction • Improves corrosion control of ferrous metals • Increases pH stability • Favorable EH&S profile

  13. Paint and Coatings • ANGUS helps formulators get the most out of their formulations. • We are the leader in multifunctional amine technology to the Paint and Coatings market with a range of specialty additives. • AMP™ is the industry standard for multifunctional amine technology • Effective pH control • Efficient pigment dispersion, resulting in lower dispersant levels • Provides significant benefits to overall performance of the coating

  14. Paint and Coatings “Lose the VOCs…Lose the Odor…Keep the Performance” with the new AEPD™ VOX 1000 Multifunctional Amine • Formulate no (<5g/L) VOC • No odor paints • Same or better performance characteristics as with AMP • Provides all-around performance

  15. Paint and Coatings Additional specialty additives from ANGUS for paints and coatings • DMAMP-80™, a vapor-phase corrosion inhibitor • ALKATERGE™Surface Active Agents, oxazoline based chemistries work as emulsion stabilizers and corrosion inhibitor • ZOLDINE™ MS-PLUS Moisture Scavenger, fast-reacting, low-viscosity oxazolidine-based water scavenger

  16. Personal Care • More than 30 years experience in amino alcohol development • ULTRA PC amino alcohols set the quality benchmark as preferred neutralizing agents, providing multiple functionalities. • ANGUS experts can assist with formulation support. • ANGUS manufactures the highest purity amino alcohols for personal care and cosmetic products • AMP-ULTRA™ PC Neutralizing Amine • AMPD™ ULTRA PC Neutralizing Amine • TRIS AMINO™ ULTRA PC Tromethamine
