Key Attributes

The addition of SCHWEGO mar 8304 to solvent based coating systems improves resistance against scratch, mar and blocking. SCHWEGO mar 8304 also improves slip, therefore smooth surface is formed and hence also film hardness is increased. Further compatibility is increased. The tendency to foaming and to dirt retention is reduced and gloss is preserved. SCHWEGO mar 8304 improves as a secondary effect wetting and leveling.

Processing Information
The addition amount of SCHWEGO mar 8304 is 0.02 - 0.30 % calculated on total formulation. SCHWEGO mar 8304 should be added at the beginning of the production. Post addition is possible, if SCHWEGO mar 8304 is homogeneously distributed. Due to low dosage prelution in one of the solvents of the formulation is recommended. SCHWEGO mar 8304 in comparison to SCHWEGO mar 8300 provides a higher compatibility, e.g. in clear coat formulations with OH-crosslinkable acrylates.
