Dosage
The recommended dosage is 0.1 % to 0.5 % of the total weight of the formulation depending upon the binder system and which property is being addressed. The exact dosage should be experimentally determined. Borchi® Gol LA 6 is easy to use and can be added at any stage of the formulation; however, for best results we recommend adding it at the end of the formula. Higher amounts may be needed in pigmented systems.
