CASE Ingredients Features
Special Properties

Additol VXL 6237 N improves the wetting of very difficult-to-disperse pigments, specially in aromatic free solventborne highgrade automotive series, car repair and industrial paints. Shortens the dispersing time. Prevents the reflocculation of the pigments. Improves gloss and leveling.

Distinguishing Features

Additol VXL 6237 N is a non-crystallizing version of Additol VXL 6237, which allows storage at low temperatures with unchanged application characteristics.

In comparison to Additol XL 260 and Additol VXL 6212 Additol VXL 6237 N has a much better effectiveness in aliphatic solvent based resins.

Suggested Uses

Additol VXL 6237 N permits a higher pigmentation of the mill base without increasing viscosity 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 6237 N in solvents containing acrylate systems, a stabilizing effect on the binder can be observed.

Processing Information

Additol VXL 6237 N 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 pigments 10.0 - 50.0 %.

We recommend determining the optimum quantity of Additol VXL 6237 N for each pigment or each pigment blend.

Possible foam formation in the mill base may be prevented by addition of Additol XL 490/50BAC. This additive improves the leveling at the same time.
