- Features
- Improves the storage stability of water- and solvent-based oxidatively cured coating systems, printing inks and pigment pastes by preventing skin-formation on the surface of the coating while still in the container
- Controls surface dry retardation and keeps the film open longer to ensure deeper penetration of oxygen to lower film layers which promotes through dry and improves flow properties
- Can eliminate excessive dry time retardation with phenolics or the toxicity of oximic compounds
- MEKO-Free Anti-Skins and High-Performance Catalysts
- Ascinin® Anti Skin 0445 and our other MEKO-free anti-skins are compatible with our high-performance cobalt replacement catalysts. High-performance catalysts include Borchi® OXY-Coat for solvent-based short, medium, and long oil alkyd coatings, Borchi® Dragon for solvent-based high solids, long oil alkyd coatings, and Borchi® OXY-Coat 1101 for water-based short, medium, and long oil alkyd coatings.

- Applications
- Polar formulations
- Clear or pigmented systems
- Dosage
- Ascinin® Anti Skin 0445 can be added to the system at any stage of the manufacturing process but it is highly recommended to add it as the final addition after driers. Pre-dilution is not recommended. The amount of Ascinin® Anti Skin 0445 depends on the type of binder and quantity of the driers used. Typical amounts are 0.2 to 0.6 % by weight on total formulation. When substituting for Butanonoxime we recommend starting with half the original amount and increase as needed.
