Features & Benefits
- CASE Ingredients Features
- Features
- Secondary drier used in combination with primary driers (manganese or vanadium compounds)
- Improves through-drying and film hardness
- Prevents wrinkling and orange peel on paint film surface
- Slightly increases dry time
- Improves pigment wetting and dispersion
- Increases gloss and color-fastness
- Reduces grind time when added to formulation at early stage
- Can be used in large amounts without discoloring film
Applications & Uses
- Compatible Polymers & Resins
- Cure Method
- Coating Type
- Applications
- Solvent-based systems based on alkyds and epoxy esters that dry by oxidation
- Dosage
- The addition rate of zinc, calculated on the metal content per solid binder, is approx. 0.03 – 0.50 %. The exact amount required depends on the binder and used formulation and should always be determined in preliminary trials. Octa-Soligen® Zinc can be introduced during the grinding step to improve pigment wetting.
