Features & Benefits
- CASE Ingredients Features
- Features
- Keeps paint film “open” to provide better through drying of quick dry and baking systems
- Can prevent orange peel and wrinkling on paint film surface
- Improves pigment wetting and dispersion
- Can increase gloss and color fastness of coatings
- Grind times may be reduced
- Will not discolor paint film
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Coating Type
- Applications
- Oxidatively cured solvent-based systems, including:
- Architectural paints
- Industrial coatings
- Stains
- Dosage
- In conventional alkyd formulations, the Zinc addition is between 0.03 – 0.50 % metal based on the vehicle solids of the coating and will vary depending upon the composition of the binder. The specific drier blend should be experimentally determined. Zinc drier can be added to the dispersion and/or in the letdown with other driers.
