Special Properties

Easy emulsifable defoamer, espacially for high quality waterborne sytems, at there conventionally mineral-oil or silicon based defoamers cause decrease the surface quallity of the film (orange peel, craters). At forced and stoving drying paints it can observed a higher cissing free filmthickness.

Suggested Uses

Additol VXW 6386 is qualified for following waterborne systems:

- stoving enamel based on alkyd- or acrylic-melamine resin

- 2 component acrylic-isocyanate paints

- paints based on waterdilutable alkyd resin

- gloss- and semigloss dispersion paint

Processing Information
  • Before using Additol VXW 6386 must be homogenisized, since it shows sedimentation.
  • The addition of the defoamer can be applied in any stage of coatings, in some cases it may be an advantage to add 2/3 of the quantity to the grinding mix and 1/3 to the let down or finished paint.
  • Quantity to be added: 0.5 - 1.5 % on paint
  • To increase the effectiveness of Additol VXW 6386 espacially against micro-foam, it can be combine with Additol XW 395 to the let down or finished paint (0.1 - 0.2 % on paint)
