Features & Benefits
- CASE Ingredients Features
- Features
- Improves the storage stability of 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.

- Dosage
- Ascinin® Anti Skin 1240 can be added to the system in any formulation step. A preliminary dilution is not suggested. We recommend its addition in a final production step after adding the siccatives to the formulation. The required amount of Ascinin® Anti Skin 1240 depends on type of binder and quantity of the used driers. Usual amounts for coating systems based on alkyds are approx. 0.2 to 0.8 % by weight on total formulation. In case of substitution of Butanonoxime we recommend starting with adding half the amount of the substituted Butanonoxime and then optimize the addition rate on basis of the obtained results.
