Additol VXL 6212 permits a higher pigmentation of the mill base without interfering viscosity increase and shortens the dispersing time. The ready pigment pastes and paints are distinguished by a high colloidal stability and do not tend to a reflocculation of the pigments. By using Additol VXL 6212, in solvent-containing acrylate systems, a stabilizing effect on the binder can be observed. The reactivity in baking paints and polyisocyanate cross-linking acrylic systems is not negatively affected by addition of Additol VXL 6212.
- Processing Information
Additol VXL 6212 must be ground jointly with the pigments.
The recommended quantity to be added, calculated on pigment, is as follows: for inorganic pigments: 3.0 - 10.0 % for organic pigment: 10.0 - 50.0 %.
We recommend determining the optimum quantity of Additol VXL 6212 for each pigment or each pigment blend. Possible foam formation in the mill base may be prevented by an addition of Additol XL 490/50BAC. This additive improves the leveling at the same time.
