CASE Ingredients Features
Product Highlights
  • Betolin A 11 stabilizes the viscosity and leads to improved resistance to water.
  • The maximum proportion of Betolin A 11 that should be added to emulsion-silicate paints and silicate textured finishes is 1 %.
  • A combination of Betolin Quart 25 and Betolin A 11 enhances the beneficial properties of Betolin P 35 E.
Properties
  • Improves product stability by preventing premature coagulation of the silicate binder.
  • Lowers the viscosity.
  • There is little or no livering of paints and textured finished during storage.
  • Increases the Betolin binder’s resistance to electrolytes.
  • Facilitates the dispersion of pigments and fillers.
  • Passivates reactives multivalent metal ions.
  • Exerts a hydrophobic effect and thus improves the coatings’ resistance to water.
  • Lengthens the wet edge time and thus facilitates application.
  • Reduces staining of colored coatings
