Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Coating Type
- Ink & Toner Type
- Use Level
- 1.0-3.0%
- Applications
Water-based clear lacquers and top coats where the presence of PTFE can be accepted, e.g. air drying and stoving enamels, aqueous acrylic lacquers and inks.
- Dosage
A definite recommendation regarding the exact dosage cannot be made. The exact dosage should be determined by own trials. Experiences have shown that a dosage of 1,0 - 3,0 % will meet the required surface properties for slip and mechanical resistance.
- Processing
Deuteron OG 330 can be incorporated into the lacquer with a high speed stirrer before adjusting the viscosity. In most cases adding the product to the mill base will not result in problems. This can be taken into consideration for optimizing the production process.
