Dosage
Our experience has shown the recommended addition rate of Borchi® Kat 0245 to be between 0.05 and 0.20 % product, calculated on solid binder. The exact amount depends on the used binder and should be determined by means of preliminary trials. Borchi® Kat 0245 can be added as supplied or solved in any suitable solvent (e.g. in xylene) to the polyol component of the coating system. The solution has to be homogenized by stirring.
