Genapol® ED 3060 Features & Benefits
Product properties:
- very low VOC (< 0.5%)
- free of alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO)
- hazard label free
- easy to handle (liquid material; soluble in water)
- suitable for ecolabel certified paints
Formulation benefits:
- increased tinting strength
- prevents the rub-out effects
- improved wetting of the coated surface
- good adhesion on metal and polyethylene
- improved compatibility of pigments with polymers and binders
- reduced water absorption
- reduces haze
- reduces the foam build up
- no side effects on surface drying, overpaintability or yellowing
Applications & Uses
Product is resistant against water hardness, metal salts, acids and alkalis in practice-orientated concentrations. As non-ionic surfactant it can be used in combination with other non-ionic compounds and with anionic and cationic substances.
Because of its interfacial activity and low foaming behaviour Product is especially suitable for the manufacture of low foaming cleaners. Product has a good lubricity. In combination with suitable corrosion inhibitors it is also used for the manufacture of aqueous metal working fluids.
Use as wetting agent/compatibilizer in deco paints:
•water-borne emulsion paints (high PVC): use recommendation: 0.5-1.5% supply dosage
•water-borne acrylic lacquers (low PVC): use recommendation: 1.0-1.5% supply dosage
•solvent-borne alkyd lacquers (low PVC): use recommendation: 0.5-1.5% supply dosage
