- Suggested Uses
- Additol XL 180 improves intercoat adhesion between finish and primer. Additol XL 180 has excellent compatibility characteristics with many binder systems and thus affords universal use. In water dilutable systems Additol XL 180 is best used neutralized with amines, preferably triethylamine. Effects of Additol XL 180 are increased adhesion and enhanced flexibility of stoving alkyd or acrylic resin paints to primers and white paints applied by electrodeposition. In single coats on iron and aluminum, Additol XL 180 does not seem to be efficience.
- Additol XL 180 as well as its salts can be combined with non-ionic and anionic substances with interfacial activity. Compatibility with cationic substances, however, should be checked individually to prevent mutual flocculation and reduction of gloss.
- Experience so far has neither shown impaired weathering resistance nor reduced storage stability in connection with the use of Additol XL 180.
- Processing Information
Additol XL 180 should be added to the finished paint prior to final adjustment of the viscosity, since it may in cases slightly reduce the viscosity.
The doses of Additol XL 180 are substantially governed by the nature of the binder. Normally, quantities between 0.1 - 1 % on total paint are sufficient. The efficiency of this additive should be individually checked prior to batch production. If Additol XL 180 is neutralized with amines, goggles for eye protection have to be worn.
