- Applications
Deuteron PMH C can be used as a matting agent in aqueous and solvent based coating systems. A suitable matting agent combination can be created for solvent free, radiation curing varnishes with the additional use of SiO2 . With its favorable oil absorption value the product is predestinated for coatings with high flexibility, e.g. coil coatings and leather finishes.In powder coatings the presence of Deuteron PMH C can improve fluidity and spraying property of the powder coating.
- Dosage
The optimum dosage depends on the required degree of gloss and the character of the binder employed. The addition ranges between 1,0 and 7,0 %. The optimum dosage should be determined by own trials.
- Processing
Due to its excellent dispersing properties Deuteron PMH C can be easily incorporated with a mechanical stirrer or dissolver. Attention has to be paid to a sufficient rate of shear. This also applies to aqueous lacquers systems. The use of a wetting agent is generally not necessary. Due to its good temperature resistance Deuteron PMH C can also be added to the mill base
