Dosage
Many tests have determined a reliable and extrapolatable method, which ever resin may be utilized. • Medium oil resins (40 – 55 %) We recommend, for this kind of formulation, the introduction of 2 – 4 g of Octa-Soligen® 141 Z as supplied per 100 g of resin solids. Example: Resin of 50 % introduced to 60 % of the formulation: • Solids content: 30 % x 0.04 = 1.2 % of Octa-Soligen® 141 Z, related to the total formulation • Long-oil resins (55 – 75 %) We recommend the introduction of 4 – 6 g of Octa-Soligen® 141 Z as supplied per 100 g of resin solids. Example: resin of 65 % introduced to 50 % into the formulation: • Solids content: 32.5 % x 0.06 = 1.95 % of Octa-Soligen® 141 Z, related to the total formulation. If there are strong proportions of drier-adsorbing pigments (due to their high specific surfaces) and/or resins with an oil-length superior to 70 % in this kind of formulation, it may become necessary to add Octa-Soligen® Calcium 10 (see separate data sheet). In this case the recommended dosage of Octa-Soligen® Calcium 10 is about 50% related to the dosage of Octa-Soligen® 141 Z.
