Features & Benefits
- CASE Ingredients Features
- Features
- Widely used secondary drier with cobalt, manganese and calcium
- Based on metal salts of 2-ethylhexanoic acid (octoates) or their isomers
- Promotes through-drying primarily by the formation of coordination bonds
- Better properties in terms of color, yellowing and stability compared to other secondary driers
Applications & Uses
- Coating Type
- Dosage
- In our experience, the percentage addition of zirconium, calculated on the metal content per solid binder, is approx. 0.05 – 0.30 %. The exact amount required depends on the binder used and should always be determined in preliminary trials.
