Features & Benefits

Special Properties

Can be used in most waterborne emulsion paints and adhesives, and in synthetic resin-bound renderings. Good storage stability even at elevated temperatures.

Distinguishing Features

Additol XW 376 is pre-emulsified and therefore it can be more easily distributed in low-viscosity systems than Additol XW 375 and Additol XW 372

Applications & Uses

Use Level
0.05 – 0.5% paint
Suggested Uses
  • Additol XW 376 is effective in large to fine particle size dispersions based on polyvinyl acetate, PVC, acrylates and their copolymers as well as alkyd resin emulsions.
  • It is easily emulsified and also incorporated in low viscosity systems. Additol XW 376 is equally useful in deaeration during pigment grinding and in the filling process; it is shear stable and alkali resistant up to pH = 13.
Processing Information

We recommend the addition of 0.05 - 0.5 % Additol XW 376, calculated on finished paint. In the case of incorporation in low-viscosity products the Additol XW 376 must be well stirred in. The optimum effect of the defoamer should be determined by preliminary trials in the system to be used.
