Suggested Uses

Additol VXW 4926 is a surface active additive for water dilutable paints. Particularly with spray application cissing on curing of the paint is prevented or may appear only with higher film thickness.

Since Additol VXW 4926 is not dilutable with water, it should be incorporated with great care. The dosed range is between 2 % and 15 % for 100 % binder solids. The optimum quantity should be determined in individual tests.

Processing Information

Since Additol VXW 4926 is not dilutable with water, it must be incorporated with great care. For testing the optimum dosage, it may be admixed to the finished paint. However an incorporation together with the pigments and extenders should be aimed at.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling

At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 730 days. At temperatures below 15 °C turbidity appears, at very low temperatures the product thickens. Therefore Additol VXW 4926 should be stored at temperatures above 15 °C. After storing for 24 hours at room temperature the turbid material liquefies again, a clear solution results, the properties are not injured by this process.
