NanoTope is the name for a range of patented nanopigments, based on SMI (Poly Styrene Maleimide), developed by TopChim's Nanoresearch department for specific innovative applications in the paper and cardboard industry. NanoTopes are emulsifier free dispersions of low particle size plastic pigments, types ranging between 30nm and 150 nm. NanoTopes can be used in coating formulations, combined with inanorganic carrier pigments such as Kaoline and Calcium carbonate.
