Special Properties and Uses

Additol XW 6591 is a water dilutable grinding medium which can be used for color- and shading pigment pastes. It is compatible with waterborne air-drying and stoving alkyds, waterborne acrylic resins, UV- curing systems, PU- dispersions and plastic dispersions. Additol XW 6591 is co-crosslinking in melamine and isocyanate curing systems.

It offers excellent wetting power for both inorganic and organic pigments.

Especially at high temperature baking conditions ADDITO XW 6591 offers a low level of thermo discoloration.

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 6591. Leveling and gloss of coatings can be improved.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling

At temperatures up to 25 °C storage stability packed in original containers amounts to at least 180 days. Water containing products may freeze at temperatures below 0 °C or become inhomogenous. The product does not suffer any damage from it, the necessary regeneration depends however on a longer warmth treatment at 40 - 50 °C while stirring. Therefore, such products should be stored away from frost.
