Release K100 DM

1 of 75 products in this brand
RELEASE K 100 DM is a synthetic polymer with high molecular weight in a 100% solid form. When in solution, it is a very efficient release agent for polyolefins and substrates with low melting point, coated with natural rubber, synthetic rubber or acrylic adhesives. It has a very good solubility in aromatic solvents (toluene, xylene). RELEASE K 100 DM is produced by a particular polymerization tecnique avoiding heavy metals catalysts. The product does not contain silicone compounds.

Applications

RELEASE K 100 DM can be used on corona treated as well as on untreated film.
Concentrations range from 0.5% solid to 3% solids depending upon film, coating equipment and desired release concentrations.
RELEASE K 100 DM is soluble in aromatic and aliphatic solvents. Solubility in toluene is fast even at room temperature, while with other solvent mixtures (aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, ...) product must be heated at 40°C.
The good solubility of RELEASE K 100 DM is due to its glasslike amorphous structure.

Packaging

The product is supplied in fiber drums (20 kg).

Storing

RELEASE K 100 DM in 100% solid form can be stored safely at almost all normal temperatures below the melting point. Shelf-life is 2 years. In solution, it must be stored at temperature not below 20-25°C to prevent gelification. In case of partial or total solidification, store the product in a heated place and stir it well before use. The product will become as fluid as before. Do not coat if liquid is not completely clear or if solidification occurs. Solution must be used with great caution because of solvent presence (avoid inhalation, skin contacts and flames). Use within 24 months from production date (unopened and in the original packaging).

Storage & Handling

Shelf Life
24 Months
Handling

Slowly add RELEASE K 100 DM to solvent and continuously stir. If necessary, heat at 40-50°C (being careful, as the solvent is flammable).
