Coatings:
ADD-3239 improves leveling and surface smoothness, increases slip and mar-resistance and avoids the formation of Bénard cells (anti-floating effect).
It is especially recommended for the following applications:
• Acid-curable or polyurethane wood finishes
• Stoving enamels based on alkyd, acrylic or polyester resins
• Self-leveling epoxy flooring compounds
• UV-curable paper lacquers
It should be added during the final thinning. For ease of handling, dilute to 10% in aromatics or mineral spirits.

Composite:
ADD-3239 is an organically modified polysiloxane possessing excellent compatibility with a wide range of systems. It gives reduction of surface tension resulting in improved leveling and spread of the compound, with no migration of the additive. It gives good de-aeration properties during processing and application.
ADD-3239 can be used in PVC plastisols and unsaturated polyesters (glass fiber reinforced), as well as solvent-free epoxy systems (e.g. flooring, conductor plates) and polyurethanes.
ADD-3239 should be added to the resin prior to processing and addition of the other components, although addition to the final product is also possible.

Storage & Handling
- STORAGE, SAFETY & HANDLING
ADD-3239 should be stored in a cool dry place. When kept in an original unopened container, it will keep up to 5 years from the date of manufacture. ADD-3239 should be handled in accordance with good industrial practice
