Additol® XW 6575 is a version of Additol® XW 6528 with an optimized co-solvent composition for improved in plant processing. For new pigment paste developments we recommend to use Additol® XW 6575.
In existing formulations based on Additol® XW 6528 a switch to Additol® XW 6575 is in most of the cases possible under consideration of the changed solvent composition. We recommend to run a pretest before re-setting.

- Special Properties and Uses
Additol® XW 6575 is a water dilutable grinding medium which can be used for color- and shading pigment pastes. It is compatible in waterborne air-drying and stoving alkyds, waterborne acrylic resins, UV-curing systems, anodic deposition dipping lacquers, PU- dispersions and plastic dispersions. Additol® XW 6575 is co-crosslinking in melamine and isocyanate curing systems.
It offers excellent wetting power for both inorganic and organic pigments. The pigment pastes are compatible with a wide variety of water dilutable binder systems. Special characteristics of binder systems remain unchanged by the use of Additol® XW 6575. Leveling and gloss of coatings get improved.

- Storage and Handling
At temperatures from 5°C to 25°C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 180 days. Synthetic resins containing water may freeze or get inhomogeneous at temperatues below 0°C.
By this the product will not suffer any damage, but the necessary regeneration requires extended heat treatment at 40 - 50°C with continuous stirring. It is therefore recommended to ensure frostproof storage of such products.
