Additol XW 6567 has Food & Drug Administration (FDA 21 C.F.R. § 175.300) approval and is in compliance with the requirements of the EU Plastics Regulation (No 10/2011).

• Additol VXW 6567 is a Food Contact Compliant Defoamer for waterborne epoxy/phenolic systems used in B&B, DWI, General line containers, Caps, Closures and Aerosol industry. It is recommended for use in spray applied repair coatings applied to seal defects formed during the mechanical crimping process. It is also recommended in all other coating types requiring food compliance with EU and/or US regulations.
• Additol VXW 6567 can be used in water borne coatings based on polyesters, alkyd, acrylic, epoxy, polyurethane and phenolic binder resins. Furthermore it could be used in waterborne adhesives and glues.
• Additol VXW 6567 enables surface defect free coatings with high efficiency and good compatibility, especially in low viscous systems.  Specially designed to be shear stable under high shear forces and effective at pH levels up to pH 13, Additol VXW 6567 is a robust defoamer.

• Additol XW 6567 should be added at high shear forces. This will insure a homogeneous distribution. As desired Additol XW 6567 can be added during any stage of the production process. On prolonged storage phase separation can develop. Prior to use it should be thoroughly agitated.
• We recommend using 0.05 ‐ 0.5 % Additol XW 6567 on total system. It is furthermore recommended to add half of the quantity to the mill base and the remainder to the formulated paint.
• The optimum dosage is related to the foaming intensity and the composition of the medium. In most emulsion systems the optimum dosage can be reduced to under 0.1 %. Lab tests have shown that an over dosis of 1 % will show no negative effects on coating properties

At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 365 days. Phase separation is possible, which can be remedied by thorough agitation
